Why Are Nassau County Property Taxes So High?

Nassau County property tax bills can include more than one type of local charge. School taxes, county and town taxes, and certain special-district costs may all contribute to the total amount a homeowner pays.

The market price of the house is not the only factor. The property's assessed value, taxable value, exemptions, school district and local tax rates can all affect the final bill.

This is why two similarly priced Nassau County homes may not carry identical annual taxes. One property may have different exemptions, assessment history, district charges or recorded characteristics.

Before deciding that a tax bill is incorrect, review the property's official assessment record, tax history and exemption information.
