Tax year 2025, the bills paid in 2026. Every figure starts from the Ohio Department of Taxation’s own estimate of the yearly tax on a $100,000 owner-occupied home in each of the state’s 4,479 taxing districts. Updated when the state publishes a new tax year.
The tax on the same $100,000 home ranges from $712 to $3,576 a year across Ohio’s taxing districts; the median district comes to $1,321. By county, Montgomery County’s median district is the highest at $2,088 and Lawrence County’s the lowest at $947.
In the Miami Valley: Montgomery County ranks 1 of 88 (median $2,088); Greene County ranks 9 of 88 (median $1,670); Clark County ranks 14 of 88 (median $1,519); Warren County ranks 16 of 88 (median $1,497); Butler County ranks 31 of 88 (median $1,351); Preble County ranks 56 of 88 (median $1,215); Miami County ranks 58 of 88 (median $1,205); Darke County ranks 71 of 88 (median $1,162).

Each city, village and township is one row. Its figure is the tax across its taxing districts, weighted by each district’s residential property value (so a district with few homes counts little), with the range of its districts; its rank is among Ohio’s 2,319 places by that figure. Tap a row for each of its districts: the school district, the tax on $100,000 and $200,000, its rank among all 4,479 districts, and how it compares with the place’s others. Pick a county, or click one, to zoom in: its cities, villages and townships are shaded by their own tax level and its districts listed below. Click it again to clear. Use + and − (or Ctrl/⌘ with the scroll wheel, or pinch) to zoom, and drag to move. Townships are their unincorporated areas; a city or village inside a township is listed as a city or village.

About these numbers
A taxing district is one combination of county, city, village or township and school district; Ohio has 4,479 of them, and every home is in exactly one. The state’s estimate applies each district’s effective residential rate to a $100,000 home’s taxable value (35% of market value) and subtracts the 10% and 2.5% rollbacks on qualifying levies; for other home values the map scales it, since the tax is proportional to value. It leaves out special assessments, the homestead exemption and the newer school-floor credit. Because it uses the same home value everywhere, it compares tax rates, not actual bills: homes in a high-rate district may be worth less, or more. A county’s median district is the middle one among its districts, not weighted by how many homes each has. A city, village or township with several taxing districts (one per school district, or a piece inside a township or a fire or park district) is shown once. Its figure averages its districts’ tax weighted by each district’s assessed residential value, from the state’s 2025 Real Property Abstract by Taxing District (county auditors’ DTE 93 abstracts), so a district with little housing counts little; a place with no residential value on record shows its median district. It weights by value, not by the number of homes, so higher-value homes count more. Each district’s own figure, statewide rank and share of the place’s residential value are in the place’s expanded row. Regions are Dayton Report’s geographic groupings.
What you pay and what you get: each school district’s tax on a $200,000 home next to its spending per pupil and class sizes is on the Ohio schools map.
