Notes

  1. Property tax reform was enacted by the Indiana Legislature in 2008 which significantly affects the way property taxes are calculated. For more information see the Department of Local Government Finance website at http://www.in.gov/dlgf/2516.htm. Other sources of information are the Indiana General Assembly website: http://www.in.gov/legislative/2397.htm and the Indiana Local Government Information Website: http://www.agecon.purdue.edu/crd/localgov/.
  2. With the 2002 reassessment, Indiana changed from "true tax value" to "market based value". As a result, rates will vary significantly from previous years. This does not necessarily indicate significant changes in taxes levied.
  3. Ranks are among 1,962 taxing districts so far reported.
  4. The source agency for these rates is the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance and specific tax related questions should be addressed to their office.
