Owner-occupied rate in mills (dollars per $1,000 of taxable value), from the published 2025 rates. Michigan rates are in mills, dollars per $1,000 of taxable value. Taxable value is capped while the same owner holds a home and resets to State Equalized Value, about half of market value, when it sells, so the bill after a purchase is usually higher than the seller's. The owner-occupied rate excludes the school-operating levy for a principal residence; a rental or second home pays the non-homestead rate. A place served by several school districts shows the median across them.
