Taxation

Residential property taxes are a major factor in the consideration of moving or purchasing a home. Luckily Alberta and the County of Newell pay relatively low property and municipal taxes in comparison across Canada.

Please visit the following municipal websites for more information on tax rates:

City of Brooks
County of Newell
Town of Bassano
Village of Duchess
Village of Rosemary


Alberta has the lowest overall tax system in Canada, and is the only province without a provincial sales tax or health premiums.
