Limited State Income Tax and Reliance on Property Taxes: Unlike other states that collect income taxes to fund public services and infrastructure, Texas relies heavily on property taxes as a primary source of revenue. The burden of funding essential services falls on homeowners, leading to higher property tax rates.
Texas levies property taxes as a percentage of each home's appraised value. So, for example, if your total tax rate is 1.5%, and your home value is $100,000, you will owe $1,500 in annual property taxes.
