How it works

South Dakota property tax is based on taxable value, which is determined by equalizing full market value to a statewide standard. This model applies a statutory school district general-fund levy to taxable value to estimate a portion of property tax liability.

Examples

The estimate applies the modeled school district levy to the taxable value of the property. Other local property tax levies are not included in this calculation.

Limitations and important notes

This is a partial estimate only. South Dakota property tax bills typically include additional levies set by counties, municipalities, and other local districts. School districts may levy less than the statutory maximum, and actual tax bills may differ.
