What Oregon homeowners pay

  • Median yearly property tax: $3,895 (15th highest of 51); $4,023 for homes with a mortgage and $3,636 for homes without one.
  • Median value of an owner-occupied home: $497,500, so a typical home pays about $325 a month.

  • Other taxes: see the Oregon income tax calculator; sales tax averages 0.00% with local taxes (Oregon sales tax calculator).

These are statewide medians. Your county, city and school district set the rates on your bill, and exemptions (such as a homestead exemption for your main home, or for seniors and veterans) can lower it. Check with your county assessor and the Oregon revenue department for the rules that apply to you.
