Effective rate = median real estate taxes paid ÷ median home value, Census ACS 2020–2024 5-year estimates. The Census reports median tax bills of $10,000 or more only as "$10,000+", so for those counties the rate and estimate are minimums (+). Sorting rates uses the displayed point estimates or interval edges; it does not establish exact ranks for counties with open-ended medians.
