Personal property tax share falls across North Carolina counties
A study by Leroy Martin, secretary of the state board of equalization, shows the per cent of total property tax paid by personal property declining from 64 per cent in 1910 to 30 per cent in 1926 and projected to 21 1/2 per cent by 1930 and 5 1/2 per cent by 1940. The report notes wide county differences from 12 per cent in Pamlico to 87 per cent in Forsyth, with several counties around 20–40 per cent and only four above 40 per cent. It warns higher real property levies in counties with low personal-property shares to meet budgets.
