Tax Assessor's Office

The Tax Assessor's Office is a government agency responsible for determining the value of properties within a specific area for tax purposes. This valuation process ensures that property taxes are based on accurate assessments of what each property is worth in the real estate market. The office collects data on properties, including size, location, and improvements, and uses this information to set assessed values. These assessments influence how much homeowners and businesses pay in property taxes, which help fund local services like schools, roads, and public safety. The office also assists with tax exemptions and appeals.
