County offers property tax exemption for disabled veterans

San Bernardino County is supporting the brave men and women who have served our country.

Veterans with a 100% service-connected disability rating from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs may be eligible for a significant property tax exemption. This exemption is also available to veterans who are totally blind or have lost two or more limbs due to service-related injuries.

“This is an important benefit that will lead to housing stability and affordability for veterans experiencing skyrocketing costs associated with home ownership,” said San Bernardino County Veteran Affairs Director Matt Knox. “I encourage every eligible veteran to take advantage of this earned benefit.”

Qualifying veterans with a household income of $78,718 or less can receive a $262,950 exemption, while those with an annual income above that amount are eligible to receive a $175,298 exemption. In 2025, a total of 6,596 disabled veterans countywide qualified for the Disabled Veterans’ Property Tax Exemption, resulting in $10.9 million in property tax savings.

“As your San Bernardino County Assessor‑Recorder‑County Clerk, I am deeply honored to support our disabled veterans—individuals whose courage and sacrifices have helped safeguard the freedoms we cherish. This property tax exemption delivers meaningful relief that our veterans deserve. I encourage all eligible veterans and their families to take full advantage of this well-earned benefit,” said San Bernardino County Assessor‑Recorder‑County Clerk Josie Gonzales.
