What Is a Property Tax Levy in Nassau County?

Many homeowners believe that property taxes change only when their assessment changes.

In reality, local tax levies also affect the final amount homeowners pay.

School districts, towns, villages and other taxing authorities determine how much revenue must be collected. Tax rates are then applied to taxable property values.

Because of this, property taxes may increase or decrease even if a property's assessment remains unchanged.

Reviewing both assessment information and local tax rates provides a more complete understanding of your annual property tax bill.
