Ways to pay less
- Seniors 65+: property tax freeze.

How: Apply with the Wilson County Trustee (615-444-0894, option 2); for city taxes you may also contact the city's collecting official.
- Disabled veterans: state tax relief. Disabled veteran homeowners who meet the state's disability requirements, and some surviving spouses, can get property tax relief; the maximum market value on which it is calculated is $175,000. There is no age or income restriction for disabled veterans. How: Contact the Wilson County Trustee (615-444-0894, option 2: Tax Freeze, Tax Relief, Disabled Veteran Tax Benefits); veterans complete a 2026 F-16 consent form (surviving spouses an F-16S).
