ZIP Code 98602

Households in ZIP code 98602, near Appleton, report a median income of $53,617, with per-capita income at $37,321. That earnings level shapes how far each dollar stretches: county property taxes run 0.62% of assessed value, so a home's annual tax bill stays tied closely to its price, while the combined sales tax of 7.60% adds to everyday purchases. Together these rates draw on a household budget already set by local wages, meaning spending choices and housing costs carry real weight. The gap between median household and per-capita figures also hints at how income is distributed across the area's residents.
