Where these school districts’ money comes from: 38% local taxes, mostly this property tax · 45% the state, from income, sales and cigarette taxes and the lottery · 17% federal money and fees. The state’s share is never on a property tax bill. The Schools section has it district by district. Where the money comes from is the state’s split, by the accounting code each district files it under. A district’s bookkeeping can put local money, such as payments from development (TIF) districts, in another column.
Homes and farmland (Class I) at the certified net rates, before the homestead exemption. Commercial property is rated separately.
Homeowners 65 and over in Clark County
38% of the homes their owners live in, in Clark County, belong to someone 65 or older — about 15,000 homes.
Ohio: 33%
Owners who are 65 or older, or disabled, can claim Ohio’s homestead exemption, which takes part of a home’s value off the bill; most must have an income under the state’s limit. From the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey, 2020–2024 five-year estimates (table B25007, owner-occupied homes by the age of the householder). A survey, so every figure has a margin of error.
