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 Reagan County, TX
Reagan County's effective property tax rate of 0.921% sits below Texas's statewide median of 1.183%, placing it 216th out of 250 counties for tax rate. That gap matters in a state where property taxes tend to run high. Against the national median of 0.794%, however, this county's rate edges higher, so the advantage is regional rather than absolute. On a median home value of $171,500, the annual real-estate tax bill comes to about $1,579. With median household income at $57,813 and per-capita income at $29,439, that levy amounts to roughly 2.7% of a typical household's yearly earnings. The ranking near the bottom of Texas counties signals that local property taxes here are comparatively restrained by state standards, even if they remain somewhat above what homeowners elsewhere in the country pay.
