Locally assessed by county assessors with Tax Commission oversight under the certified-tax-rate process. A primary residence (plus up to one acre) is exempt on 45% of fair market value, so tax applies to only 55% (Utah Const. art. XIII sec. 3); rates vary by the taxing entities where the property sits. Bills and payments are handled by county officials.

No statewide property tax rate — Arizona property is classified and valued by each of the 15 county assessors and taxed at locally set rates to fund local governments, schools, and special districts (AZDOR centrally values utilities, mines, railroads, and airlines). Appeals, exemptions, and relief are handled at the county level; effective rates vary by county.

Local-only tax — revenue funds schools, county government and special districts (none goes to state services). Tax = actual value x assessment rate x local mill levies. 2026 residential assessment rates: 6.8% (local government) and 7.05% (school district); most commercial 25-26%. County assessors revalue real property every odd-numbered year; senior and disabled-veteran exemptions available.

IdahoInfo
The State of Idaho collects no property tax; counties assess and levy it locally. Property is assessed at 100% of market value as of January 1, less exemptions. The homeowner's exemption removes 50% of an owner-occupied home's value plus up to one acre (capped at $125,000) from the taxable amount. Local taxing-district budgets set the rate.

Property tax is administered by counties: assessors value property as of January 1 and mail valuation notices each spring, and the county treasurer bills from net taxable value, so rates vary by county and district. Exemptions are available for qualifying homeowners.
