What you'll pay, at a glance

Property taxes are the largest local tax most homeowners pay. The effective rate measures the real tax bill as a share of home value — a more useful number than the nominal “mill rate,” because assessment practices vary county to county.

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 Clark County, NV

Clark County’s effective property tax rate of 0.477% sits below Nevada’s statewide median of 0.495%, placing it 11th among the state’s 17 counties — a middle-to-lower position rather than the cheapest. Against the national median of 0.794%, the gap widens considerably, so homeowners around Las Vegas, Henderson, and North Las Vegas pay a smaller share of property value in taxes than most Americans. On a median home value of $431,000, that rate yields an annual real-estate tax bill of about $2,057. With median household income at $76,472 and per-capita income at $39,897, the tax consumes a limited slice of household earnings. What this signals is a county where property taxes are comparatively restrained by national standards, though only slightly below average within Nevada itself.

Frequently asked questions

What is the property tax rate in Clark County, NV?
The effective rate is 0.48% — meaning the median tax bill equals about 0.48% of the median home value.
How much are property taxes on a median home?
On the median home ($431,000), the estimated annual bill is about $2,057.
Is Clark County's rate high or low?
Compare it to the state median of 0.49% and the national average near 1.1%.
How does the effective rate differ from my mill rate?
A mill rate is the nominal levy per $1,000 of assessed value. The effective rate reflects what you actually pay after exemptions and assessments — it's the median tax bill as a share of median home value, so it better predicts your real cost.
Will a reassessment raise my tax bill?
Not necessarily. If your home's assessed value rises, your bill can go up, but only if the mill rate and exemptions stay flat. Contact the Clark County assessor's office to review your current assessment.
Can I appeal my property tax assessment?
Yes. Most counties allow an appeal when you believe the assessed value exceeds the market value. File with the Clark County assessor within the local deadline, typically with comparable sales as evidence.
