ZIP Code 94087

ZIP code 94087, in San Jose, ranks among the wealthier corners of Silicon Valley, with a median household income of $207,742 and per-capita income of $106,389. Homes here carry a median value of $2,000,001, and the county's 0.67% effective property tax rate translates into a substantial annual bill at that price point. Sales tax in the area totals 9.75%, so everyday purchases also carry a noticeable premium. Households earning at this level can absorb both costs, but the combination of steep home values and elevated consumption taxes keeps the overall tax load high despite the low property tax percentage.
