Protest Your 2026 Brazoria County Property Taxes

Brazoria County is located along the Texas Gulf Coast south of Houston and is home to over 380,000 residents. The median home value is approximately $292,000, and at an effective tax rate of about 1.70%, the typical homeowner pays roughly $4,960 per year in property taxes.

The Brazoria Central Appraisal District (Brazoria CAD) appraises all property in the county annually. In 2024, over 60,000 property tax protests were filed - 25% of all parcels - and 87% of those protests resulted in a value reduction. When cases reach the ARB, the success rate climbs to an impressive 98%.

Brazoria County features a diverse economy built on petrochemical industry, agriculture, and rapidly growing suburban communities. Cities like Pearland and Manvel have experienced significant growth as part of the Houston metro expansion, while Lake Jackson and Angleton serve as established centers of the county. With property values rising 3.7% year-over-year, homeowners face increasing assessments each year.

Whether you own a home in the rapidly growing communities of Pearland and Iowa Colony, the coastal areas near Freeport and Surfside Beach, or the established neighborhoods of Lake Jackson, protesting your Brazoria CAD assessment is one of the most reliable ways to lower your annual tax bill.
