Greeley's combined sales tax rate ranges from 7.01% (ZIP codes 80632, 80633, 80638, 80639: 2.9% state + 4.11% city) to 8.4% (ZIP codes 80631, 80634, parts of 80638: 2.9% state + 4.5% city + 1% special district) -- a real, meaningful within-city spread, wider than what this dataset found for Longmont or Loveland.
A property tax rate genuinely in line with this dataset's other Colorado Tier A cities
Ownwell cites Greeley's median effective property tax rate at 0.48%, based on actual Weld County property records, with ZIP-level variation from 0.47% (80631) to 0.49% (80634) -- broadly similar to Loveland's cited 0.47% and modestly below Longmont's cited ~0.52%-0.54%, all running above Colorado's state median but well below the national one.
Colorado's flat, TABOR-variable state income tax applies as elsewhere in the state
Colorado's flat state income tax rate is 4.40% for 2026, subject to a TABOR-driven refund mechanism that can temporarily reduce it in state revenue-surplus years (it reduced the rate to 4.25% for tax year 2024 specifically) -- see the Colorado state record for the full mechanism. This applies in Greeley exactly as it would anywhere else in the state.
