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 or the Indiana Local Government Information website from Purdue University.
  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 2,063 taxing districts so far reported.
  4. These data are organized and made accessible on STATS Indiana by the Indiana Business Research Center at Indiana University's Kelley School of Business. However, the source agency for these rates is the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance, so specific tax-related questions should be addressed to their office.
