Where Towanda’s money goes
Thank you for being a neighbor
Revenue is well above spending. That usually means Towanda collects property taxes for the school district and county and passes them on, so only its own spending is counted.
Towanda didn’t report all of its 2022 figures to the Census Bureau, so most of these numbers are the Bureau’s estimates.
0 full-time staff
On the payroll in March 2022 (a Census Bureau estimate).
By department full-time, plus part-time
Pay is March payroll times twelve, so it’s approximate. Part-timers count half in the bar lengths.
