How it works
Property taxes in Fresno County are estimated using the assessed value established under California law and a combined local property tax rate. The combined rate represents the total of applicable county, city, school district, and special district taxes that apply to a property based on its location.
Examples
For a Fresno County parcel assessed at 900,000, the statewide 1 percent general levy would produce 9,000 as the base amount. However, the total property tax rate may exceed 1 percent when locally approved bonded indebtedness is included. The calculator illustrates the constitutional base calculation before tax rate area variations are applied.
