Property Tax Assessment Values Across Port Angeles, Clallam County, Washington

When examining property taxes in Port Angeles, Washington, understanding the distinction between market value and assessed value is crucial.

The assessed value is the market value minus any applicable exemptions or limits determined by local laws and offerings. The tax assessed value is the figure used to calculate your property taxes or the amount multiplied by your tax rate to get your tax bill.

Assessment notices are sent in the spring each year and typically reach your mailbox by the middle of May. Each property owner receives an assessment notice that contains both the market value and assessed value, along with an estimate of your property tax bill.

For example, the median home price in Port Angeles is $353,877, with tax bills ranging from $3,011 in 98363 to $3,122 in 98362. That median tax bill of $3,075 is above the national median property tax bill of $2,400 and reflects a local burden that can vary across the county.
