Answer

Your assessed value is multiplied by the tax rate. The tax rate is the total rate of the combined taxing units (County, Township, City or Town, Library, etc.) within each taxing district. The tax rate is expressed in dollars per hundred dollar of assessed value. This amount is reduced by a state and county credits and by any exemptions you may have. You can find valuable information concerning exemptions by visiting the Auditor's website at www.allencountyauditor.us. Click "Property Tax Division." You may also call the Auditor's Office at 260-449-7241.
