There is quite a bit of tax information for Atlanta and Georgia, in fact, too much for us to publish here. Below is a just a some of the Atlanta area tax information. Also we have provided a list of telephone numbers to the county offices to contact for more specific information.

Residential property tax calculations contain three essential elements:

1. Fair Market Value - determined by the tax assessor, which is assessed at 40%

2. Standard Homestead Exemption - available to resident homeowners, subtracted from the assessment, which applies to certain portions of the tax bill (additional exemptions may apply to senior citizens, veterans and the disabled - and each county has a deadline for filing this exemption).

3. Millage Rates - set by the counties, schoold boards and cities. A mill is equal to a dollar for each $1,000 of assessed value minus any expemptions.
