On property taxes, the only specific rate provided is the Harris County property tax rate of $0.3810 per $100 of valuation. City and school district tax rates were not provided, so I can’t break out a city portion, a school district portion, or provide a combined total rate without guessing; in practice, your all-in bill will typically include multiple overlapping jurisdictions beyond the county rate. What I can say confidently is that Texas has no state income tax, which often helps offset higher property-tax structures for households comparing total tax burden across states.
