Some people believe that employer and business taxes are not a part of their personal tax burden. However, in the final analysis, all taxes are paid by people . . . As is true of most families in Utah, Eugene and Eunice must both hold full-time jobs in order to comfortably support their family. This increase was due to reappraisal by the local county assessor. Various taxing entities are permitted to assess property taxes.
School districts account for the lreatest part of the Utah family's property tax bill.
Taxes levied by counties, cities, asn special districts complete their final property tax bill. The Utah family are among the state's majority of workers who travel to and from their jobs in a private automobile. Eugene drives about 13,500 miles a year in the Taurus, which gets about 24 miles to the gallon. Because of her work as a real estate agent, Eunice drives about 16,580 miles a year. The Corolla, however, gets 288 miles to the gallon.
