San Jose, CA — income, home value, property tax, and sales tax.
In ZIP code 95117, part of San Jose, the median home value of $1,520,700 stands far above what local earnings would ordinarily support, with median household income at $116,348 and per-capita income at $67,458. A county effective property tax rate of 0.67% keeps annual bills lower than many California jurisdictions charge on comparable values, though the absolute dollar amount still weighs heavily against area wages. Add a combined sales tax of 10.00%, and daily costs climb further. Ownership here leans on accumulated equity, long tenure, or outside resources rather than income alone.
