ZIP Code 98323

ZIP code 98323, near Tacoma, sits in affluent territory. A median household income of $121,875 is roughly double the national figure, and per-capita income of $52,325 reinforces that strength. Homes here carry a median value of $463,500, and the county-level property tax rate of 0.91% translates to a real but contained annual bill on that amount. Add a combined sales tax of 8.20%, and the overall tax picture skews toward higher earners who can absorb it without strain. This is a well-off pocket of the Tacoma area, where housing wealth and income both run well above average.
