Chapter Chapter 3 in Major League Sports and the Property Tax, 2022, pp 65-82 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter reports the property tax status of active major league facilities and teams in 2020 using data collected from local assessors and tax collectors. It is common for academics and journalists to claim that most teams do not pay property taxes, and in this chapter I show this claim is correct in some respects but not in others. Whereas most teams do not pay real property taxes on their facilities, most pay personal property taxes. Many also pay other taxes on property including special assessments and payments in lieu of taxes. In other words, the claim that most major league team owners do not pay property taxes is misleading and requires qualification.
