How this is calculated
The effective property tax rate is the median real-estate tax bill divided by the median home value — both for owner-occupied homes, from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS 5-year estimates)1. Median income is also from the ACS1. Federal and state income-tax figures use IRS2 and Tax Foundation3 data.
About Randolph County, NC
Randolph County’s effective property tax rate of 0.672% sits above North Carolina’s statewide median of 0.644%, placing it 46th among the state’s 100 counties. That ranking puts it just past the midpoint, so homeowners around Asheboro and the county’s other towns pay somewhat more than the state’s median rate. Against the national median of 0.794%, however, the county lands below average. A median home valued at $197,100 generates an annual real-estate tax bill of about $1,324, set against a median household income of $61,022 and per-capita income of $31,238. The gap between the state and national benchmarks signals a county that taxes a bit more heavily than its own state but less than the country as a whole—a middle-of-the-road position shaped by local budgets and property values rather than any extreme.
