Where the money comes from

  • Property taxes 87%
  • From the state 12%
  • From the federal government <1%

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

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