Kansas property tax levies by county

What the figures are

This page reproduces the Department of Revenue's average levy on tangible property for each county, given as the "Average rate in dollars on each one-thousand dollars valuation" — that is, mills on assessed valuation — for property outside cities (rural), inside cities (urban) and the county as a whole. It is a county average across all classes of property, not the levy on any one bill. Period: 2025 levies (tax bills issued late in 2025), from the Property Valuation Division's Table IV.

• Kansas assessed valuation is a percentage of appraised value that depends on the class of property; that percentage was not read from a statute for this page, so no example bill is given.
• A property's own levy is the total of the levies of the taxing districts where it sits.

All 105 counties, 2025

Ranked by county average levy (dollars per $1,000 of valuation), highest first; 1 county shown as printed but not ranked (†) follow. Click a heading to sort.

Rows shown as printed but checked

Every row is shown exactly as the source prints it. This one failed one of this page's checks, so it is marked † and left out of rankings, medians and the drawings; it was not changed.

• Greeley: Its county average is outside three interquartile ranges of the other counties (above 267.1). The same table prints high averages for it in 2023 and 2024 too.

The Kansas assessment percentage was not read from a statute, so no example bill is computed.

Source: Kansas Department of Revenue, Property Valuation Division, Table IV: Average County Levies on Tangible Property Valuation, 2023-2025 (Average rate in dollars on each $1,000 of valuation (rural, urban and county average) for each of the 105 counties and the state, 2025 columns; read twice (106/106 identical), with a third targeted read of 13 rows and a position check of the ten rows printed column-wise in the text layer). Checks: the table was read twice, independently (once in document order with all years, once 2025 only in reverse alphabetical order), and both reads agreed on all 106 rows; a third targeted read of 13 counties gave the same 2025 figures; every county's average lies between its rural and urban averages (105 of 105); ten counties that the PDF text layer prints in two column-wise blocks were checked by position on the page (each county and its figures share one line) and all ten match; no two neighbouring rows repeat the same figures.
