School

The largest contributor to high property taxes in Kansas is local government and school district spending, which accounts for nearly half (approximately 45%) of total property tax levies. This is compounded by rapidly rising residential property valuations and a shift in the tax burden from commercial to residential properties. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Key drivers of Kansas's high real estate taxes include:

• School Finance & Local Levies: A mandatory statewide 20-mill levy for schools, combined with local school district, county, and city levies, constitutes the majority of the tax bill.

• Rising Valuations: Overheated residential markets have led to significant increases in home values, which directly increases assessed taxes, as Kansas lacks strict, California-style caps on assessment increases.

• Tax Burden Shift: Over the past 30 years, the tax burden has shifted significantly onto homeowners, who now pay roughly 56% of the total property taxes, up from 35% following a 1992 constitutional change.

• High Infrastructure Costs: The need to maintain infrastructure across a large area with a relatively low population density (high rural costs) further drives up the necessary tax revenue. [4, 5, 6]
