In the State of Texas, homeowners have some of the highest property tax rates in the country, and it can be difficult to determine just where these property taxes are going. Each year, your city and/or county should publish their proposed budgets and corresponding tax rates, and many of the local jurisdictions will also call for attendance at meetings to discuss the proposed rates and budget, so make sure to pay attention and attend any open meetings to express your concerns or opinions. Property taxes in the state of Texas cover the annual budget for the municipality, county, and school district as well as special districts in some cases. In this post, we’ve taken a closer look at the property tax breakdown for the most recent year in Dallas-Fort Worth counties and cities.
