Pompano Beach property tax: where it goes

Ways to pay less
- Seniors 65+ with limited income: extra exemptions. Seniors 65 or older with a homestead exemption and 2026 household adjusted gross income of no more than $38,686 (a limit the Property Appraiser says will be adjusted by the end of January for the 2027 tax year) can get the low-income senior exemption, which applies to the county portion of the taxes and to city taxes in cities that adopted it. Broward County raised its amount to $50,000, and Pompano Beach is listed among the cities that enacted the ordinance increasing the senior exemption to $50,000. Pompano Beach also enacted the long-term residency senior exemption, which exempts city taxes for seniors who meet the age and income requirements, have lived in the home at least 25 years and whose property had a just value under $250,000 when they first applied. How: File the sworn income statement with the Broward County Property Appraiser by March 1, 2027 and income documents by June 1, 2027.
- $5,000 exemptions for widowed, blind and disabled residents. Broward offers a $5,000 exemption for widowed persons, a $5,000 exemption for blind persons and a $5,000 exemption for totally and permanently disabled residents. How: The Broward County Property Appraiser lists the documents for each: the spouse's death certificate, a Division of Blind Services certificate, or a letter or certificate from a Florida-licensed physician, the VA or the Social Security Administration.
- Veterans with a service-connected disability: exemptions. Florida veterans with a military service-related disability of at least 10% that was incurred during a period of wartime service or by misfortune can get a $5,000 exemption; honorably discharged veterans with a service-connected total and permanent disability are entitled to an exemption on their homestead. How: For the $5,000 exemption the Broward County Property Appraiser asks for a copy of your Certificate of Disability from the U.S. Government or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
- Pay your tax bill in November for 4% off. Broward tax bills paid in full get 4% off in November, 3% in December, 2% in January and 1% in February. Partial payments forfeit the discounts. How: Pay the Broward County Tax Collector in full in November.
