How many Elk Ridge homes look over-assessed?

We analysed 1,028 single-family homes and condominiums with an Elk Ridge address that carry enough detail to compare against neighbours — an assessed value, a building area, and a named subdivision. They sit across 65 subdivisions.

307 of them — 29.9% — are assessed more than 5% above the median of comparable homes in their own subdivision, once building size is accounted for. Of those, 185 are more than 10% above.

Where Elk Ridge homes sit against their subdivision median

29.9% over +5%

Shaded area is the measured share of 1,028 homes in Elk Ridge assessed more than 5% above their cohort median, and the p90 tick is the measured 90th percentile. The curve is a normal distribution fitted to those figures, drawn to show where the threshold falls — not a claim that the underlying spread is normal.

For a home in that group, the median difference is $71,974 in assessed value, or roughly $371 a year in property tax at current rates.

That is 1% of the 31,092 flagged homes across Utah County.

What the Elk Ridge roll looks like

Parcels with this address city: 1,837

Median building area: 2,095 sq ft
Median year built: 2012

"Elk Ridge" here is the address city as the county records it, which follows postal rather than municipal boundaries — a few of these parcels may sit outside the city limits.

The largest subdivisions in Elk Ridge

Comparisons are made within a subdivision, because that is the group an assessor values together. These are the largest ones here.

Subdivision	Homes analysed	More than 5% above median
Elk Ridge Meadows Phase 2	81	21 (25.9%)
Salem Hills Plat A	65	26 (40.0%)
Doe Hill Estates Plat A	57	14 (24.6%)
Elk Ridge Meadows Phase 1	50	14 (28.0%)
Salem Hills Plat B	31	15 (48.4%)

Subdivision names appear exactly as Utah County records them, abbreviations and plat numbers included — so "Amd" for amended, "Add" for addition, "Ph" or "#2" for a phase. We do not tidy them up, because the name is what you would search for in the county's own records to check a comparable.

What is the 2026 appeal deadline for Elk Ridge?

Filing deadline

15 September 2026, or 45 days after your valuation notice — whichever is later

Elk Ridge property is assessed by Utah County, so the appeal is filed with the county rather than the city. 15 September 2026, or 45 days after your valuation notice — whichever is later.

The later of September 15, or the last day of a 45-day period beginning the day the county auditor provides the valuation notice (Utah Code 59-2-1004(3)(a)).

The application goes to County Auditor.

Can an Elk Ridge homeowner appeal on comparable assessments?

Equalization Ground Accepted

Yes. UT treats equalization — how your assessment compares with comparable properties — as a ground in its own right, separate from arguing what the home would sell for.

Statutory basis:Utah Code 59-2-1004(2)(a) ('valuation or the equalization'); 59-2-1004(4)(a)(i) (comparable-assessment evidence on the application); 59-2-1006(5) (mandatory +/-5% equalization remedy); 59-2-103(3) (45% residential exemption)

UT is a non-disclosure state: sale prices are not public record. That is why comparing assessed values is the practical route — assessed values are published for every parcel, and sale prices are not published at all.
