How long each Jacksonville sales surtax lasts
Jacksonville's 1.5% local surtax is three separate 0.5% levies approved at different times. They have different end dates, so the combined rate is scheduled to fall unless they are renewed. According to the Florida Department of Revenue's surtax table for Duval County:
- The first 0.5% took effect January 1, 1989 and has no expiration date.
- The second 0.5% took effect January 1, 2001 and is due to expire December 31, 2030.
- The third 0.5% took effect January 1, 2021 and is due to expire December 31, 2035.
Homestead exemption for Jacksonville homeowners
Jacksonville's median homeowner pays $2,497 a year in property tax, the lowest of the large Florida cities we cover, on a median home worth $325,300. That is an effective rate of about 0.77%. Owner-occupiers can claim Florida's homestead exemption: a home that is your permanent residence can have its taxable value cut by as much as $50,000. Only the first $25,000 applies to school taxes; the second $25,000 applies to assessed value above $50,000 and only to non-school taxes, and since it is now indexed to inflation it can be slightly larger. The exemption also qualifies the home for the Save Our Homes assessment limit, and the benefit built up can be "ported" to a new Florida homestead if you move.
