Colorado ranks 48th among the 50 states in tax revenues compared to personal income. The State ranks 18th, with per capita state and local taxes averaging 5% lower than the national average. Because of its extensive oil and gas activity, Weld County has been able to maintain a real estate property tax level that is significantly lower than the surrounding areas. This translates into a competitive advantage for businesses. Evans also offers a rebate of up to 50% of personal property tax to qualifying businesses.
