Your share of the budget

Where Henry’s money goes

Where the money comes from
Property taxes 100%

Revenue is well above spending. That usually means Henry collects property taxes for the school district and county and passes them on, so only its own spending is counted.

An estimate

Henry didn’t report all of its 2022 figures to the Census Bureau, so most of these numbers are the Bureau’s estimates.
