Highest property taxes by county (page 8)

Ordered by median annual taxes paid divided by median home value. These are survey estimates, not local tax rates set by law.

See lowest estimated rates | Compare counties with your own home value

Census survey estimates, 2020–2024 ACS five-year vintage 2024. Effective rate here means median annual real estate taxes paid (B25103) divided by median owner-occupied home value (B25077). Owner-occupied units come from B25003. This is a ratio of two medians, not a rate set by law or the median of individual homeowners’ rates.

Survey estimates have sampling error. Countywide medians do not account for a particular home’s condition, assessment rules, exemptions or taxing districts. Rankings describe point estimates, not statistically significant differences. Missing and bounded estimates are excluded from rates and rankings.

Last verified 2026-10-24. Census data and methodology. Amounts are in 2024 dollars; no inflation adjustment is applied to your inputs. Displayed rates are rounded; calculations use the unrounded ratio.
