What stands out about how Holland is run
Read from the town’s official records.
South Pemiscot County R-V School District
Holland’s K–12 school district, shared with Steele. It’s its own government, with a budget separate from the town’s.
Of the $14,236 per pupil, $8,046 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.
Missouri districts overall: 54% local, 35% state, 11% federal.
School year 2023–24. Census Bureau school finance survey.
The typical homeowner pays $494 a year
Every local property tax on the home: town, schools and county. About 0.83% of the home’s value, vs 0.85% across Missouri.
Typical yearly bill next door and statewide
The Housing page’s calculator splits a monthly payment into loan, tax and insurance at Holland’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.
