ZIP Code 95623

ZIP code 95623, near South Lake Tahoe, sits in affluent territory: a median household income of $109,102 and per-capita income of $40,373 place it well above statewide norms, while a median home value of $601,800 reflects a high-cost housing market. Property taxes stay contained, though, with a county-level effective rate of 0.70% — a homeowner at that median value pays roughly $4,200 annually, a lighter share of income than many California jurisdictions. Sales taxes are another matter: the combined 8.25% rate applies to everyday purchases, adding up over time. Overall, this is a prosperous area with a mixed tax picture.
