Where the money comes from

  • Property taxes 55%
  • From the state 40%
  • Other taxes & licenses 5%

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

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