Travis County property taxes

Travis County property tax calculator

Travis County includes Austin and surrounding communities where school districts, municipalities, emergency-service districts and other taxing units vary by address. The county rate is only one part of a Texas property-tax bill, so this calculator keeps the parcel's school, municipal and special-district taxing units separate.

Two properties in Travis County can have different combined rates because school-district, municipal and special-district boundaries can differ by parcel.

Reference notes

Travis County property-tax sources and methodology

Methodology

Texas Defined does not publish a single citywide or countywide combined rate. The calculator starts with the selected county, loads finalized taxing-unit rates reported to the Texas Comptroller, and requires the user to choose the school district, municipality and special districts that actually serve the parcel. Exemptions and taxable values remain user-entered because they are parcel-specific.

Last verified

Source links and local jurisdiction guidance checked August 30, 2026. The calculator labels the finalized rate year returned by the official-rate dataset; verify the actual parcel and current tax record before relying on the result.

This is a planning estimate, not a tax statement, appraisal, exemption determination or legal description. The parcel's appraisal record, exemptions, taxing-unit membership and adopted rates control the actual bill.
