Plan your next step

Estimate a bill and check your assessment

Census survey estimates, 2020–2024. These county medians describe a survey population; they do not establish your home’s correct assessment.

Median home value
$452,800
Median annual taxes paid
$1,983
Estimated effective rate
0.44%

Census home values, Census taxes paid. Last verified 2026-10-24. Rate = median taxes ÷ median home value. Displayed rates are rounded; calculations use the unrounded ratio.

Example at $452,800: $1,983 per year, using the Census estimate.

Is my assessment too high?

At the default market value and bill, both equal the county medians. Being above a median does not establish overassessment. Assessed or taxable values may use a different basis and cannot be compared directly with Census market values.

Appeal timing and filing

For the 2027 valuation notice: the county lists April 21, 2026 for the administrative petition and December 15, 2026 for Tax Court.

How to file: Tax Court or Small Claims Court, 125 W Washington, Phoenix; phone 602-506-8297.

State guidance: An unresolved assessor appeal may proceed to the Board of Equalization and/or Tax Court; an original appeal may also go directly to Tax Court.
