How this is calculated
The effective property tax rate is the median real-estate tax bill divided by the median home value — both for owner-occupied homes, from the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS 5-year estimates)1. Median income is also from the ACS1. Federal and state income-tax figures use IRS2 and Tax Foundation3 data.
About Pulaski County, GA
Property owners in Pulaski County, Georgia, face an effective tax rate of 0.928%, which sits above both the statewide median of 0.859% and the national median of 0.794%. Among Georgia's 158 counties, this places Pulaski at 53rd, meaning roughly two-thirds of the state's counties levy a lighter rate on property. The median home value here is $157,600, producing an annual real-estate tax bill of about $1,463. Households bring in a median of $50,406, while per-capita income reaches $27,575. Pineview, the county's principal town, sits within these same boundaries. The gap between Pulaski's rate and the national figure is meaningful: buyers here pay proportionally more in property taxes than the average American homeowner. That higher rate can shape decisions about where families settle and how much house they can afford, since each dollar of assessed value carries a heavier tax cost than in most of the country.
