ZIP Code 95046

Households in ZIP code 95046, near San Jose, bring in a median income of $158,550, or $64,979 per person. With a median home value of $1,477,900, property taxes at the county's 0.67% rate would run roughly $9,900 a year, a substantial line item even against that healthy paycheck. Add a combined sales tax of 9.75% on purchases, and daily spending carries a noticeable premium too. The earnings picture here supports homeownership, but carrying costs and consumption taxes claim a meaningful share of the budget, so buyers should weigh both against their take-home pay.
