About these numbers

Effective rate = median real estate taxes paid ÷ median home value, owner-occupied homes, from the Census American Community Survey 2020-2024 ACS 5-year. It shows the typical burden, not a statutory rate; bills depend on local rates, assessments and exemptions. Full methodology.
