Answer:

Yes, Maricopa County can raise money to carry out its county duties. These money comes mostly in the form of property taxes, which are levied on mobile homes as well.

However, Maricopa County only collects a small portion of property taxes, while the rest is collected by the state of Arizona. For this reason, the county depends to a certain extend on transfers from Arizona.
