What is provided is the Bexar County property tax rate, which is $0.3000 per $100 of valuation; your total effective property tax rate will be higher once school district and any other local rates are added, but those figures weren’t supplied here, so I can’t calculate a combined estimate.

Household earnings in the area are also strong, with a median household income of $147,727 and per capita income of $57,278, which can offset higher housing expenses for many buyers.
