* The figures in this table are for
property taxes paid by households on owner-occupied housing. As a result, they
exclude property taxes paid by businesses, renters, and others. All data come
from the 2007 American Community Survey from the U.S. Census Bureau. "Median
Property Taxes Paid on Homes" is the median real estate tax paid on
owner-occupied housing units for that county. The home value statistic used is
the median value of owner-occupied housing units for that county. The income
statistic used is the median household income for those households that are
owner-occupied housing units. |
