The school district

Lynnville’s K–12 school district, shared with Anderson Township, Boon Township, Boonville, Campbell Township, Chandler and more. It’s its own government, with a budget separate from the town’s.

No comparison for Lynnville yet

The fair comparison uses 2022, the last year the Census Bureau counted every government (later years are a sample). Lynnville’s 2022 operating figures are mostly a Census estimate, so it has no like-for-like peer figure. It reported 2023; the next full count is 2027.

Over the years

Day-to-day spending is up 335300% since 2022

Day-to-day services, in dollars, in the years Lynnville reported to the Census Bureau. Prices rose too: about 4% a year in 2022–2024.

Day-to-day spending by fiscal year

2022$0
2023$3.4 million

Per resident: 2022: $0 · 2023: $3,955. Per resident it went from $0 to $3,955 (up 395400%), partly because the Census population behind it changed from 977 to 848.

Building projects, interest and enterprises (hospital, utilities) are left out, so a big construction year doesn’t read as growth.

Property tax

The typical homeowner pays $1,057 a year

Every local property tax on the home: town, schools and county. About 0.81% of the home’s value, vs 0.74% across Indiana.

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.
