In Highland Village, the city property tax rate is $0.5010 per $100 of valuation, and the Denton County property tax rate is $0.1859 per $100. Together, that’s an estimated $0.6869 per $100 before adding any school district or special district rates, which weren’t provided here, so your actual all-in rate will be higher once those are included. With home values around $464,000 in the 75077 area, taxes are a meaningful line item to plan for. On the housing side, the broader ZIP shows a median gross rent of $2,098 per month, which gives a sense of the rental market even in an area where about 75.6% of units are owner-occupied. Regional Price Parity indices (where 100 equals the U.S. average) were not provided for this location, so I can’t quantify whether overall costs, housing, goods, or utilities run above or below the national average. In general, Highland Village households often balance higher home prices with Texas’s tax structure and the lack of state income tax, making it important to estimate a full monthly payment rather than focusing on price alone.
