The 0.68% property tax rate reflects the county-level effective rate for Boise and is used to calculate your monthly tax escrow above. This rate may differ from the statewide Idaho average — county-level data produces more accurate monthly payment estimates for Boise buyers. Many Boise properties also carry HOA fees — the area average is approximately $150/month, which is not included in the calculator above.
