Where Lucky's money goes
Where the money comes from
- Property taxes 100%
Revenue here is well above spending. That usually means Lucky collects property taxes for the school district and county and passes them on, so only its own spending is counted above.
Lucky didn't report all of its 2022 figures to the Census Bureau, so most of these numbers are the Bureau's estimates.
Bienville Parish School District
Lucky's K–12 school district, shared with Arcadia, Bienville, Bryceland, Castor, Gibsland and Jamestown. It is its own government, with a budget separate from the town's.
Where the district's money comes from Louisiana districts overall: 47% local, 34% state, 19% federal
- Local 72%
- State 19%
- Federal 9%
Of the $24,010 per pupil, $13,129 goes to classroom instruction (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to support services such as buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren't in the per-pupil figure.

What homeowners in Lucky pay
The median yearly bill homeowners report, covering every local property tax on the home (town, schools, county). The effective rate is that bill divided by the median home value, so it's a rough guide, not the official tax rate. In a town this small the survey estimate has a wide margin.
