Understanding Georgia Property Taxes

How Georgia Calculates Property Tax

Georgia uses a 40% assessment ratio — your taxable value is 40% of fair market value. This assessed value is then multiplied by the county millage rate to determine your tax bill. Most homeowners qualify for a homestead exemption that reduces assessed value by up to $10,000.

Why Taxes Vary by County

Metro Atlanta spans 14+ counties, each with different millage rates. Forsyth and Fayette counties have the lowest rates (~0.87–0.89%), while Clayton and DeKalb counties have the highest (~1.24–1.35%). City of Atlanta residents pay an additional city millage on top of Fulton County rates.
