The real property tax rates per one thousand dollars of net taxable assessed valuation.  The property is classified upon its highest and best use.  If you are using your property as your principal residence, don't forget to file for your homeowner's exemption by the end of the year.  The homeowner's exemption is $300,000.  Therefore, if your house value is assessed at $500,000, with a homeowner's exemption, it would bring the value down to $200,000.  At a rate of $2.50 / $1,000 of the assessed value, your property taxes for the entire year would only be $500.00.
