Estimate Your Bisbee Property Tax
Put in your home's value for a plain estimate of the yearly bill — schools, county, city and college — plus the senior freeze and exemptions that can lower it.
Put in your home's value to see a plain estimate of the yearly property-tax bill and where it goes — schools, the county, the city, and Cochise College. These are the 2025 rates for a property inside the City of Bisbee.
It's on the yearly Notice of Value from the Cochise County Assessor — the value your taxes are based on, not the market price or what you paid.
Arizona taxes an owner-occupied home (Class 3) and a residential rental (Class 4) at the same 10% and the same rates.

How the rate is set
How your bill is built
Arizona figures the tax in three steps: it takes 10% of your home's value to get the 'net assessed value', adds up the rates each authority charges per $100 of that, then bills you. In Bisbee the biggest pieces are the schools and the city.

The 1% cap on a home you live in
Some of these rates are 'primary' (day-to-day budgets) and some are 'secondary' (voter-approved bonds and special districts). For the home you live in, Arizona caps the primary taxes at 1% of the home's value — if they would go over, the state pays the difference. This estimate is the full amount before that cap and the rebate below, so a primary-home bill is usually lower.

What can lower your bill
Homeowner Rebate — if you live here
If this is the home you live in, Arizona automatically takes about 40% off your primary school taxes, up to $600 a year (the State Aid to Education / Homeowner Rebate). You don't apply, but the Assessor must have it on record as your primary residence — so it's worth checking your Notice of Value.
More informationSenior Valuation Protection — the 'senior freeze'
If at least one owner is 65 or older, has lived in the home for 2+ years, and the household's average income over the last 3 years is under $47,712 (one owner) or $59,640 (two or more owners), you can apply to freeze your home's Full Cash Value for 3 years, renewable. The Assessor notes it freezes the Full Cash Value only — not the Limited Property Value or the tax rate. Apply by September 1.
More informationExemptions — widows, widowers, disability, disabled veterans
These take $4,873 of assessed value off the bill (2026). A 100% service-connected disabled veteran can have the whole primary-home value exempted. There are limits — household income under $39,865 (or $47,826 with minor children) and total property under $36,865; Social Security and VA disability income don't count. Apply with the Assessor between January 2 and March 1.
