TAXES BY THE NUMBERS

Where your dollars go by the numbers

So, what does this mean in dollars and cents? Here is a break down of your property taxes. The graph below shows the tax rate you pay to each organization per $1000 of your property's value. The graph also estimates what that could mean in total taxes for a "sample house" (a property valued at $200,000).
