ZIP Code 98587

ZIP code 98587, near Aberdeen, sits in working-class territory: a median household income of $51,458 and per-capita income of $20,539 fall well below state norms, while homes center on a median value of $112,300. Property taxes run at a county-level effective rate of 0.80%, so an owner of a home at that median value pays roughly $900 annually. Sales taxes, though, bite harder — the combined rate reaches 8.90% on purchases. Incomes here stay constrained, home prices remain within reach of wage earners, and the tax mix leans on consumption rather than property wealth.
