Methodology

Calculated from Census Bureau American Community Survey 1-year estimates for places with 65,000+ population: aggregate real estate taxes paid by owner-occupied housing units (table B25090) divided by their aggregate value (table B25082). The median tax bill is from table B25103; the Census Bureau top-codes it at $10,000, and capped values are shown as the cap. Values and taxes are reported by homeowners. Cities that are part of larger taxing districts (for example, school or county levies) include those taxes, because owners report their total real estate tax bill.

Puerto Rico and other US territories are not included. Rankings use competition ranking: tied values share a rank.

Frequently asked questions

Which city has the highest property tax rate?

Among cities with 65,000+ people, East Orange, NJ, at 2.45% of home value per year.

Which city has the lowest property tax rate?

Mount Pleasant, SC, at 0.25%.

Why can neighboring cities have very different rates?

Each city, county and school district sets its own levy, and some states cap assessments or offer large homestead exemptions. Cities with high home values can also raise the same revenue with a lower rate.
