State Overview
Property Taxes in Arizona
Arizona Taxes Well Below National Average
Arizona homeowners pay an average effective property tax rate of 0.581%, nearly half the national median of 1.03%—ranking the state among the most tax-friendly in the country. With a median annual property tax bill of just $1,349 compared to the national median of $2,690, Arizona offers significantly lighter property tax burden for residents.
Wide Tax Gap Across Arizona Counties
Effective tax rates swing dramatically across Arizona's 15 counties, ranging from Greenlee County's low of 0.359% to Apache County's high of 0.838%—a difference of nearly 3-to-1. Median tax bills tell a similar story: Greenlee homeowners pay $489 annually while Pima County residents pay $2,248, highlighting significant regional variation in property tax burden.
Typical Arizona Homeowner Pays $1,349 Yearly
The median Arizona home value sits at $243,360, with owners paying a statewide median property tax of $1,349 per year. That translates to roughly $113 monthly—well below the national average and reflecting Arizona's position as a relative tax bargain for homeownership.
Metro Counties Drive Tax Bill Variation
Arizona's largest metro areas show mixed patterns: Maricopa County (Phoenix metro) averages $1,965 in annual taxes at a 0.474% rate, while Pima County (Tucson metro) tops the state at $2,248 and 0.783%. Rural and smaller counties like Greenlee and La Paz charge far less, creating a clear urban-rural divide in property tax burden.
Arizona: A Low-Tax State for Homeowners
Arizona ranks firmly in the low-tax category nationally, with effective rates less than 60% of the U.S. median—making it attractive for property owners seeking affordable homeownership. Prospective residents should compare specific counties, as Pima and Coconino command significantly higher taxes than rural alternatives like Greenlee, where tax bills remain exceptionally modest.
