About PropertyTaxRates.org

Our Mission

PropertyTaxRates.org exists to make property tax information accessible, transparent, and easy to understand for every American homeowner, homebuyer, and researcher. We compile and present property tax data from official government sources so you can quickly compare tax rates and home values across the country.

Whether you are considering a move, researching property investments, or simply curious about how your county compares to others, our goal is to provide clear, accurate, and up-to-date information in a user-friendly format.

Data Sources

All property tax and housing data on this website comes from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey (ACS) 2023, specifically:

  • Median real estate taxes paid — Table B25103
  • Median home value — Table B25077
  • Housing tenure (owner vs. renter) — Table B25003
  • Total housing units — Table B25001

The effective tax rate displayed on this site is calculated by dividing the median property tax paid by the median home value for each geographic area. This provides a practical estimate of the actual tax burden but may differ from statutory tax rates due to exemptions, assessment ratios, and other factors.
