How this ranking works

We rank every town by the median yearly real-estate tax bill homeowners actually pay (the tax rate column is that bill divided by the median home value). The town with the lowest figure ranks #1. For comparison, the figure for Georgia as a whole is $2,341/yr.

Only towns with at least 2,500 residents are ranked; Census estimates for smaller places are too uncertain. Population and income: U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 5-year estimates. Town photos: Wikimedia Commons, credited on each town’s page.
