Where the money comes from

  • Property taxes 97%
  • From the state 2%
  • Interest, fines & other <1%

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

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