Arizona homestead exemption
- Arizona assesses a primary residence (class three property) at 10% of its full cash value or limited value.
- A home's limited property value can rise by at most 5% a year, and never above its full cash value.
This is the property tax homestead exemption, not the homestead exemption that protects a home from creditors in bankruptcy.

Why might a Arizona tax bill differ from this estimate?
The rate is what owner-occupiers in Arizona paid on average in 2020 through 2024, as a share of their homes' value. An actual bill depends on the home's assessed value, the levies where it sits and the exemptions its owner claims.
What the calculator leaves out
- The rate is the total real estate tax owner-occupiers reported paying divided by the total value they reported for their homes, not a tax rate set by law.
- The rate already reflects the exemptions, caps and credits typical owner-occupiers received, so the calculator does not subtract a homestead exemption again.
- An actual bill depends on the home's assessed value, the levies where it sits and the exemptions its owner claims.
- Survey estimates for small counties have wide margins of error.
Rates and medians are American Community Survey 2020-2024 5-year estimates: taxes owners paid in those years, not 2026 bills.
