Wrinkled map of Colorado zoomed in on Denver and surrounding citiesEarlier this month, Colorado homeowners gained access to a powerful new tool to help them better understand their property taxes. OIT’s Geographic Information System (GIS) team collaborated with the Governor’s Office and Department of Local Affairs (DOLA) to launch the innovative Colorado Property Tax Map. This first-of-its-kind interactive map, accessible at DPT.Colorado.gov/property-tax-map, is designed to provide Coloradans with a centralized, accessible and reliable source to estimate their property taxes and gain clarity on statewide taxing jurisdictions and boundaries.

“In Colorado, we have made it one of our top priorities to decrease property taxes for all Coloradans,” said Governor Polis. “I am excited to launch the Colorado Property Tax Map tool to take the stress out of taxes by offering a user-friendly map to remove the guesswork for Coloradans.”

The map aggregates data provided by local governments, displaying historical taxing information, parcel details and tax rates in a way that has never been done before. While the map provides a valuable resource for last year's property tax information, it will continue to be updated annually. This comprehensive approach aims to add much-needed context and clarity to what is often a confusing subject for property owners. The map also includes a built-in calculator, allowing users to easily determine their estimated property taxes.

This new online tool represents a significant step forward in government transparency and accessibility, empowering Colorado homeowners with the information they need to navigate the complexities of property taxation.

The Colorado Property Tax Map can be viewed from any device and does not require an account. Visit DOLA's Property Tax Map webpage for more information, to access the map and to find the Property Tax Map Help Guide.
