What stands out about how Boligee is run
Read from the town’s budget and official records.
Greene County School District
Boligee’s K–12 school district, shared with Eutaw, Forkland, Union. It’s its own government, with a budget separate from the town’s.
Of the $19,272 per pupil, $8,939 goes to the classroom (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren’t in the per-pupil figure.
Alabama districts overall: 31% local, 53% state, 16% federal.

How Town Hall compares budgets →The typical homeowner pays $317 a year
Every local property tax on the home: town, schools and county. About 0.57% of the home’s value, vs 0.38% across Alabama.
Typical yearly bill next door and statewide
The Housing page’s calculator splits a monthly payment into loan, tax and insurance at Boligee’s rate.
Can I afford it? →The median bill homeowners report to the Census survey (bills of $10,000+ are reported as “$10,000+”). The effective rate is that bill ÷ the median home value: a rough guide, not the official tax rate. In a town this small the estimate has a wide margin.
