ZIP Code 98007

ZIP code 98007, in the Seattle area, ranks among the region's more affluent communities. A median household income of $131,109 and per-capita income of $72,875 sit well above national norms, and the median home value of $1,018,100 reflects a housing market that has climbed past the million-dollar mark. Property taxes, levied at 0.83% countywide, translate into a substantial annual bill on that valuation. Add a combined sales tax of 10.30%, and households here face a genuinely high overall tax load, softened only by incomes strong enough to absorb it.
