Hutchinson property tax: where it goes
A Hutchinson house pays 1.764% of its taxable value in property tax. For a house at $275,000 of value before exemptions with the homestead exemption, that's about $3,675 a year.
Tax is levied on for a residential homestead: estimated market value, less the homestead market value exclusion, times the class rate (1.00% on the first $500,000, 1.25% above) gives tax capacity, which is taxed at the local tax capacity rate; the school referendum levy is a separate rate on market value.
