Property Tax Data by School District
School District Taxable Property Values, Taxes Levied and Tax Rates for Current Expenses, and Average Property Values Per Pupil, Tax Year 1990
In the 1990 tax year, Ohio school districts’ current operating levies yielded a total of $4.2 billion in property taxes on the taxable value of $127.0 billion. These total amounts included $2.8 billion in real property taxes charged against the taxable value of $94.5 billion and $1.3 billion in tangible property taxes charged against the taxable value of $32.5 billion. Public utility real and tangible property is included in the figures. All taxes shown are after application of "tax reduction factors," but include tax amounts reduced under various property tax relief programs, since these are fully reimbursed to local school districts by the state (i.e., the 10 percent, and 2.5 percent rollbacks, and homestead exemption programs for real property, and the $10,000 exemption program for personal property).
The table also shows millage rates for real and tangible property and average property values per pupil. In 1990, millage rates for school district operating levies ranged from a high of 66.47 mills on real property and 122.23 mills for tangible property in Shaker Heights City School District (Cuyahoga County) to a low of 19.50 mills on real property and tangible property in Cuyahoga Heights Local School District (Cuyahoga County). The statewide average school district operating millage on real property was 29.84 effective mills; on tangible property, 41.45 mills. Perry Local School District (Lake County) ranked number one in the state in average total taxable property value per pupil with an average of $963,179. Huntington Local School District (Ross County) ranked number 612 with the lowest per pupil average of $18,565. The state average was $82,614.
