How much are the school taxes in Rockland county?
Hi,
I am planning on buying a new place in Nanuet in Rockland County. I understand that this area is one of the best school districts. How much are the school taxes in that area? Any help is appreciated.
Thank you

check of the bottom of the page on this link http://www.town.clarkstown.ny.us/htm...chool_tax.html
It's approx 69.8 cents per $1000.00 of assessed value. I know my elderly mom pays over 3k a year in New City. |

Yeah, it's in addition to property taxes. New City is nothing compared to North Rockland. Stay away from NR if school taxes are an issue.

School Taxes are considered part of your property tax.

School tax is seperate from property tax. If you have a home or price range in which your looking in Nanuet have your realtor work up some numbers for you so you can better decide. If you havn't committed to an agency use a figure of 7-10K a year. It may be a little high but it should get you in the ball park.

How is school tax separate from property tax? Local, County, and School Taxes are all based on your property valuation, thus they constitute the property tax. I understand they will be separated out on your bill or whatever, but they are what make up your property tax. What am I missing here.

Rug City if you go to http://www.town.clarkstown.ny.us/html/tax_rates.html it will show the School Tax Rate and the Town/County Tax Rates. In looking at my moms bill School tax includes the library tax. Town/County includes about 14 items including trash, roads etc. Each is paid once a year and if you look at a specific users tax bill history it will show School Tax and Town tax, for 2007 she paid just under 8K. I hate to see the cost without Senior Discount. Remember also for Nanuet your school tax rate will be different than Clarkstown schools. |

Understood- but combined they make up your property tax. What else would you consider them- Income Tax? Sales Tax?
