Inequalities Between Real Property Owners in Ohio
A historical analysis notes the adoption of a general property tax in Ohio in 1846 and its constitutional embedding in 1891. It compares tax values of real estate to personal property from 1852 through 1962, showing real estate consistently bears far more tax value than personal property, while population shifts toward urban areas intensify urban wealth concentration and tax burdens. The piece highlights growth in municipal populations and wealth, urging broader, fairer taxation across property types.
