City and County Taxation

City and county taxation refers to the process by which local governments collect money from residents and businesses to fund public services and infrastructure. Cities typically impose taxes like property taxes, sales taxes, and income taxes, while counties may do the same, often focusing on broader services like law enforcement, road maintenance, and public health. These taxes are essential for local governments to operate, providing necessary resources for schools, parks, emergency services, and other community needs. Essentially, they help ensure that local areas can function effectively and maintain a good quality of life for residents.
