How is the Actual Amount of Property Taxes I Owe Determined?
The annual property tax a homeowner owes is based on two factors:
1) the property’s “Assessed Valuation” (as determined by the Jefferson County Assessor)
2) the total number of mills assessed by all taxing entities (“mill levy”)
Annual Property Tax = Property Assessed Valuation divided by 1,000 then multiplied by the total mill assessment
