State Overview

Property Taxes in Indiana

Indiana taxes rank well below national average

Indiana homeowners pay an effective property tax rate of 0.671%, nearly 35% lower than the national median of 1.03%. This ranks Indiana in the bottom half of states, making it one of the more affordable places to own property by tax burden alone.

County-to-county variation spans more than double

Effective tax rates across Indiana's 92 counties range from 0.412% in Switzerland County to 0.929% in Marion County—a difference of more than 125%. This wide spread means where you buy in Indiana dramatically shapes your tax bill.

Typical Indiana homeowner pays $1,199 annually

With a median home value of $178,101 and median property tax of $1,199, the average Indiana homeowner pays roughly $100 per month in property taxes. This is less than half the national median property tax bill of $2,690, reflecting Indiana's lower valuations and tax rates combined.

Suburban counties drive Indiana's tax variation

Prosperous suburban counties near Indianapolis—Hamilton, Boone, and Hendricks—report the highest taxes, with Hamilton County homeowners paying $3,340 annually. Meanwhile, rural and less-developed counties like Clay and Pulaski average under $650, creating a stark urban-rural divide in tax burden.

Indiana offers genuine tax relief for homeowners

Indiana is solidly a low-tax state for property owners, with rates and bills running 30–50% below national norms. If tax burden influences your move, Indiana rewards you—especially in rural counties and small towns—though you'll pay more in booming suburbs like Hamilton County.
