What this rate applies to
Arizona publishes the taxable base separately from the rate. Groceries, prescription drugs, clothing and services are treated differently state to state, and several categories in Arizona are taxed at reduced rates or exempt entirely. Chandler runs one of the lowest municipal rates in the Phoenix metro, which is why its combined rate sits under Phoenix and Mesa. Check the Arizona Department of Revenue guidance for the category you are pricing before assuming 7.8% applies.
