Missouri Property Tax (2026)
Info: Property tax is assessed and collected locally.
Property tax is assessed and collected locally. County assessors set your property's market value, apply a classification percentage to reach assessed value (19% for residential), then local taxing districts apply their levies, so rates vary by county and district.
