Answers to common questions about buying a home in Logan County.
Homeowners in Logan County pay a median $1,010 a year in property taxes, from 2024 US Census ACS 5-year estimates. There is no single property tax rate for Logan County. The 0.61% figure commonly quoted is a county-wide median: the median annual property tax paid ($1,010) divided by the median home value ($164,900), from 2024 US Census ACS 5-year estimates. It is a statistic describing the county, not a rate levied on any particular property. Your own bill depends on your assessed value, the millage set by your overlapping taxing districts, any homestead or senior exemptions you qualify for, and special assessments. One thing to watch: the median reflects taxes actually paid by current owners, many of whom hold homestead exemptions and assessment caps, so a new buyer paying today's market price often pays more than 0.61% of the purchase price.
