Washington state has a similar situation in the greater
Seattle area where special "regional transit authority"
taxes apply, and the boundaries for that tax often bifurcate
other establish sales tax zones. Fun.

Yes, me too; but upon reading I got two different rates for
the Boulder county+city area. When I get inconsistent data
from the internet I like to try to verify it with
knowledgeable and helpful people.

Thanks to Mr. Adams, that's what this NG is all about. If
anyone in the NG is from the Boulder area, they would know
the correct rates and I wouldn't have to guess. I always
find it easier to make corrections before submitting a
return. Don't you?

Thank you (and Mr. Kalman) for the information. I was
getting conflicting numbers from my searches now I
understand why.

For 2004, the Colorado general rate was 2.9%

Boulder City is 3.41% (currently). I can't locate the 2004
rate. The current Boulder County tax rate is .65%. Boulder
is located in several special taxing districts which
accumulate another 1.2% (which was .8% in 2004). Plus parts
of Boulder have another special district tax of .5%.

BTW, anyone can go to
https://www.taxview.state.co.us/Quer...spx?selected=1
to check current Colorado sales tax rates. No historical
information available.

In the last few years, Colorado has been named as the worst
state in the Union for sales tax issues. There are State
level sales taxes, state level special districts impacting
multiple counties (but not all), county taxes, city taxes,
local taxes, etc. None of which are bounded by zip codes.
