Property Taxes

New Mexico communities have some of the lowest property taxes in the country!

How property taxes are calculated:
• Assessed value is discounted by 67% prior to application of tax rates.
• Tax rates have maintained fairly steady for the last 5 years.

Example:
$190,000 x 0.33 = $67,200 assessed value
Assessed value x tax rate (0.028743) = $1,931.53 annual property taxes
