Taxes & Insurance in Cibolo
Cibolo's tax picture includes a genuinely notable, Cibolo-specific data point -- the highest median property tax bill in Guadalupe County -- but Cibolo-specific insurance premium data was not confirmed this session, an honest gap rather than an estimate.

Learn moreNo state income tax, and a genuinely notable property tax bill
Texas levies no state income tax. Guadalupe County's effective property tax rate is cited around 1.69%, with a county median tax bill around $4,783 -- but Cibolo itself is specifically cited as carrying the highest median bill of any city in the county, at $6,226 (Ownwell, reused from the Schertz record's own Guadalupe County sourcing). Confirm the current, exact rate and bill for a specific Cibolo parcel directly with the Guadalupe County Appraisal District before relying on this figure for a purchase decision.
Texas's combined sales tax ceiling applies here too
Neighboring Schertz's combined sales tax rate is cited at 8.25% (6.25% state + 0.5% Guadalupe County + 1.5% city) -- the state-allowed maximum most Texas cities reach (per schertz-topics.js). A Cibolo-specific confirmation of its own city sales-tax component was not independently retrieved this session, but Texas's 8.25% combined ceiling is a statewide constant that Cibolo, sitting in the same county, would very plausibly also reach -- confirm directly rather than assume.
Homeowners insurance: no Cibolo-specific figure confirmed this session
No Cibolo-specific homeowners insurance premium data was retrieved this session. Guadalupe County sits within Central Texas's well-documented hail corridor (see the climate topic), a plausible regional cost driver -- but get a current, address-specific quote directly rather than relying on this record for a specific premium estimate.
Key takeaways
- Texas has no state income tax; Guadalupe County's effective property tax rate is cited around 1.69%, but Cibolo specifically carries the county's highest median tax bill ($6,226) -- a real, meaningful, Cibolo-specific cost.
- Texas's 8.25% combined sales tax ceiling (cited for neighboring Schertz) plausibly applies to Cibolo too, given the shared county, though not independently confirmed as Cibolo's own rate this session.
- No Cibolo-specific homeowners insurance premium was confirmed this session -- get a current, address-specific quote directly.
