How much property tax does a disabled veteran owe in each state? All 50 states offer some form of property tax exemption for veterans with service-connected disabilities, but the exemption amount, qualifying disability rating, home value caps, and surviving spouse provisions vary enormously. This dataset records each state's exemption type, dollar amounts or percentage thresholds by disability rating level, home value limits, surviving spouse eligibility, annual adjustment mechanism, and the specific statutory citation.

Provenance — what every record carries

Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one; these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on the canonical site at its url.

Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.
