ZIP Code 96817

In ZIP 96817, covering part of Honolulu, median household income stands at $75,476 while the median home value reaches $916,100 — a gap that makes buying here a stretch for many. The county's effective property tax rate of 0.28% softens the blow: on that median home, annual taxes would run roughly $2,565, a share of income that stays contained precisely because the rate is so far below what most mainland counties charge. Per-capita income is $42,251, and the combined sales tax rate of 4.50% applies to purchases.
