Farmington Hills, Oakland County, Michigan

Property Tax Rate

39.46 to 42.87 mills for an owner-occupied home (principal residence)

The Michigan Treasury's published 2025 rates, per $1,000 of taxable value, across the 3 school districts that serve parts of Farmington Hills. A home that is not a principal residence pays 55.77 to 57.28 mills, because it does not get the school-operating exemption.

After a sale. Michigan caps how fast a home's taxable value can rise while the same owner holds it, and resets it to the State Equalized Value (about half of market value) when the home sells. On a $300,000 purchase that is a taxable value near $150,000, so at the median rate the bill is about $5,924 a year if the buyer lives there and about $8,567 if not. The seller's bill is often much lower, so the current bill is not a guide to the next one. A full report projects the bill for a specific address.

Tiers rank each outcome against all Michigan districts, so a higher tier is always the better result (for the dropout rate, a lower rate ranks higher). Some small-district figures are suppressed by the state and are left out here.
