Thank you for being a neighbor
Day-to-day spending is up 14% since 2022
Day-to-day services, in dollars, in the years Green reported to the Census Bureau. Prices rose too: about 4% a year in 2022–2024.
Day-to-day spending by fiscal year
Per resident: 2022: $1,435 · 2023: $1,486 · 2024: $1,546. Per resident it went from $1,435 to $1,546 (up 8%), partly because the Census population behind it changed from 25,678 to 27,269.
Building projects, interest and enterprises (hospital, utilities) are left out, so a big construction year doesn’t read as growth.
The typical homeowner pays $3,714 a year
Every local property tax on the home: town, schools and county. About 1.33% of the home’s value, vs 1.31% across Ohio.

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.
