How these numbers are made
- Florida tax bills are public, but we calculate yours from public rates and the value you enter.
- Property tax: 16.2010 mills in total for Volusia County millage code 201 (Ormond Beach), 2026 tax year, from the Property Appraiser's 2026 final millage table: County 5.0698 operating plus 0.4000 voter-approved; Volusia County Schools 5.2430; St. Johns River WMD 0.1793; Florida Inland Navigation District 0.0270; hospital district 0.6814; East Volusia Mosquito Control 0.1573; Ponce De Leon Inlet and Port District 0.0640; City of Ormond Beach 4.3202 operating and 0.0590 voted debt service. No Ormond Beach lines appear in the Property Appraiser's 2026 NAVA roll summary (proposed 2026 roll), so no flat charge is on a typical bill; stormwater and garbage are on the utility bill.
- Homestead takes $25,000 off all taxes and up to $26,411 more off non-school taxes (we apply the full $26,411). The typical value is the Census median market value of owner-occupied units, condos and mobile homes included; the Save Our Homes cap keeps many homesteads' assessed value lower.
- Water, sewer, stormwater and garbage are on the monthly City utility bill at the rates on the City's rates page: water $18.45 base for 0 to 2,000 gallons then $4.38 per 1,000 gallons to 6,000 and $5.20 above; sewer $22.83 base for 0 to 2,000 gallons then $5.87 per 1,000 gallons; stormwater $11.00; garbage $28.90 plus recycling $8.11. The page does not say whether these include the increases voted for fall 2025 and gives no typical use, so the page starts at 9 CCF. City pages disagree on garbage ($27.26 on the solid waste page); we use the rates page. Effluent reuse ($16 a month where available), irrigation meters, septic and wells are not modeled.
- Electricity: FPL rate RS-1 effective October 2026, $10.52 a month plus 12.258 cents per kWh up to 1,000 kWh and 14.258 cents above, plus Ormond Beach's 10% public service tax on electricity applied to the whole bill (Florida law exempts fuel adjustment charges, so this slightly overstates it). FPL's franchise fee and the state gross receipts tax are not included. Typical use, 1,104 kWh a month, is EIA's 2024 Florida residential average. Gas is not modeled: about 1% of Ormond Beach owner-occupied homes heat with utility gas (Census ACS 2020-2024).
- Insurance: Florida OIR's Volusia County average homeowners premium with wind coverage ($2,808, data as of March 31, 2026); flood insurance is separate.
