How this compares nationally
The population-weighted average modeled rate across indexed Utah counties is 0.52%. That modeled effective rate is below the broad national band many surveys use for orientation (often roughly 1–1.3% of home value, varying by source and methodology)—local bills still depend on your parcel.
Orientation band (~1–1.3%): broad U.S. survey context. See Tax Foundation — Property taxes as a percentage of owner-occupied housing value (state / local, illustrative national context).

FAQ
Common questions
Statewide orientation for Utah—open a county page for parcel-level rules.
What do these Utah county pages show?
Each indexed Utah county page uses U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2023 5-year county medians (B25103 / B25077) with an implied effective rate (median tax ÷ median value), plus state statutory and agency references.
Why is the statewide average different from one Utah county?
This hub averages population-weighted implied rates across 29 counties using POPESTIMATE2024 (or ACS B01003 where aligned in source data). Each county’s median tax ÷ median value reflects its own housing stock—not your parcel.
When are property taxes due in Utah?
Utah property taxes are commonly due in November for many counties with penalties after posted deadlines—confirm on your county treasurer statement.
How should I compare Utah counties to the rest of the U.S.?
Utah county pages use ACS 2023 medians—align comparisons to the same Census definitions; local assessments, classes (especially in Hawaii), and district millage drive actual bills. See our national context note and Rate Gazetteer’s methodology page.
