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
$388,800
Median annual taxes paid
$2,861
Estimated effective rate
0.74%

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 $388,800: $2,861 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

Regular assessment appeals: July 2 through November 30. Supplemental appeals: within 60 days of the notice.

How to file: File Form BOE 305-AH with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors.

State guidance: File the county's Assessment Appeal Application (BOE-305-AH) with the clerk of the board in the county where the property is located.
