Property tax rates unchanged across American cities
A National Municipal League survey shows 1941 property tax rates rose by only 2 cents per $1,000 while assessed values increased about 0.1 percent. Atlantic City, New Jersey, again has the highest rate at 59.80 per thousand. Alabama towns hold the lowest figures, and larger cities face slower value declines necessitating modest rate rises. Ohio’s population grew from 6,646,697 to 6,889,623 between 1930 and 1940.
