ZIP Code 98850

Households in ZIP code 98850, near East Wenatchee, bring in a median of $83,125 a year, while per-capita income sits at $27,599. A median home value of $374,700 taxed at the county's 0.77% rate works out to roughly $2,885 in annual property taxes, a figure most local earners can absorb without straining. Day-to-day purchases carry an 8.50% combined sales tax, so spending does cost more than in some parts of Washington. Even so, the gap between earnings and housing costs leaves room for savings, and the sales levy spreads the load across everyday transactions rather than concentrating it on homeowners.
