Eagan's City portion of Property Taxes Below other Dakota County Cities

City's Portion of Property Taxes Below Most Others

The City of Eagan portion of property taxes are once again well below most other Dakota County cities and the 3rd lowest of 18 cities compared in the Twin Cities metropolitan area, according to data released at the December 1 Truth In Taxation Public Hearing.

“We’re proud that the City of Eagan’s property taxes are 22% below the 18-city average,” said Eagan Mayor Mike Maguire. That means that for the average Eagan home worth $276,000, Eagan’s city portion of property tax is $740 compared to the 18-city average of $946 and a high in one Dakota County city of $1,329. That’s a lower city portion than in any of Eagan’s neighboring cities except Mendota Heights.
