Arizona Property Tax Rate
Arizona property tax rates vary according to certain factors, such as your city, county, school district and whether your house is in any special tax districts. There are two types of tax rates: primary and secondary. Primary tax rates fund government entities like municipalities and school districts, while secondary tax rates fund special districts and bond issues for major projects. Primary rates usually account for the majority of property tax rates in Arizona.
The state of Arizona has relatively low property tax rates, thanks in part to a law that caps the total tax rate on owner-occupied homes. The average effective tax rate in the state is 0.62%, which is well below the 1.07% national average.
