Property Tax Bills Across Cleburne County, Arkansas

Property tax bills in Cleburne County are based on the assessed value of a home, not its market price alone. Local taxing authorities apply their tax rates to that assessed value to determine the final bill, so two homes with similar market values can still owe different amounts if their assessments or tax rates differ.

Several factors shape what a homeowner pays, including the home’s value, any exemptions that may apply, and the mix of local levies used to fund services. With a median home price of $130,065, bills can vary widely across the county. The 25th percentile tax bill is $314, while the 75th percentile is $1,547 and the 90th percentile reaches $2,755.

That range means property taxes can have a meaningful impact on monthly housing costs and long-term affordability. Even within the same county, homeowners in places like Fairfield Bay and Ida may see very different bills depending on how their property is assessed and taxed.
