How much are property taxes in Lyman, South Carolina?

Your property tax bill in Lyman depends on your property's assessed value multiplied by the composite tax rate of all overlapping districts. This page breaks down every taxing district that applies in Lyman, Spartanburg County, so you can see exactly where your tax dollars go.

How are property tax rates determined in South Carolina?

Property tax rates in South Carolina are set by each taxing district (municipality, school district, park district, library, etc.) based on their annual levy (the amount of tax revenue they need). The rate is calculated by dividing the levy by the total assessed value of all property in the district.

What is the composite tax rate?

The composite tax rate is the sum of all overlapping taxing district rates that apply to a specific property. A typical property may be taxed by several overlapping districts. The composite rate determines your total tax bill when multiplied by your property's assessed value.

Why do tax rates vary within the same town?

Properties within the same municipality can have different composite rates because overlapping districts (school, park, fire, library) have different boundaries. A home in one school district may have a different rate than a home two blocks away in a different school district.
