Gwinnett residents can see how property taxes spent

Aug 18, 2011

Gwinnett residents can see how the county spends their property taxes with a new interactive web tool.

As part of a redesigned county web site, Gwinnett has created a “where your property taxes go” calculator that shows – down to the penny – an estimate of how much of each property owner’s tax bill is spent on public safety, public works, transportation, recreation and other services. Users can use their name, property address, mailing address or parcel number to view information about their bill.

To use the calculator, visit www.gwinnettcounty.com and click the "your money" button.
