Property Tax Bills Across Eddy County, North Dakota

Property tax bills in Eddy County are based on the assessed value of a home, not its market value. Local taxing authorities apply their tax rates to that assessed value to determine the annual bill, so two homes with similar market prices can still owe different amounts if their assessments differ. Factors such as property characteristics, location, and any applicable exemptions can all influence the final amount.

For homeowners, this means the tax bill can change when a property is reassessed or when local tax rates shift. In Eddy County, the median home price is $35,000, and the median tax bill in New Rockford is $475.00. That sits below the national median property tax bill of $2,400, showing how much lower property taxes can be in this county.
