Concord Township’s Tax Millage History
Real estate taxes are calculated by multiplying the local millage rate (property tax rate) by 1/1000th of the assessed value of the property. To calculate, take your ASSESSED value and divide by 1000, then multiply by the millage rate.
*Please note: Property assessments are set by the County.*
Sample Calculation of Concord Township tax:
If your home is assessed at $150,000:
$150,000 ÷ 1000 = 150 x 0.944 = $141.60
