You read correctly. If you live in Blount County, you pay Blount County property taxes. If you live in the city limits of Maryville, you'll also pay Maryville property taxes in addition to Blount County property taxes since Maryville is in Blount County.
This is the case in every county in Tennessee. You have to pay property taxes to the county in which you own property, and if your property is within a city then you'll have to also pay city property taxes.
