ZIP Code 98814

Households in ZIP code 98814, near Carlton, bring in a median of $98,715 a year, with per-capita income at $63,590 — a level that gives many families room to cover housing without straining. A median home value of $582,700 pairs with a county property tax rate of 0.76%, so annual property taxes land well below what higher-tax regions demand. Add an 8.00% combined sales tax on purchases, and the overall picture favors earners here: strong incomes, contained property levies, and a consumption tax that shapes day-to-day spending but leaves substantial income for saving or other priorities.
