How this compares nationally

The population-weighted average modeled rate across indexed Oregon counties is 0.84%. 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 (~11.3%): 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 Oregon—open a county page for parcel-level rules.

What do these Oregon county pages show?

Each indexed Oregon 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 Oregon county?

This hub averages population-weighted implied rates across 36 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 Oregon?

Oregon property taxes are often billed in thirds—many counties use November, February, and May due dates—confirm on your county tax statement.

How should I compare Oregon counties to the rest of the U.S.?

Oregon 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.
