Overview

Nevada is best known for Las Vegas, a city where many visitors lose too much money, but a few lucky ones strike it rich. For residents of Nevada, however, they’ve hit the tax jackpot. Not only is there no income taxes levied, but they also enjoy some of the lowest property taxes in the nation. Of course, you’ll have to endure lots of hot weather and a high cost of living if you want to make this your home state.

Nevada Property Taxes

Nevada has one of the lowest real estate tax rates in the country. This is partly due to the state’s property tax abatement law, which limits annual property tax rate increases to 3% or less.
