Morgan County Real Estate Tax Rates Explained
In Morgan County, the property tax conversation revolves around a 36.5-mill unincorporated foundation and the localized adjustments layered on top of it. Those base mills split into 6.5 for the state, 14 for the county, and 16 dedicated to schools.
The 10% Class III assessment cap is the pivotal figure for Morgan County owners: a property valued at $300,000 is assessed at only $30,000, and the county's 36.5-mill rate is applied to that reduced base rather than the full appraisal.
The homestead exemption is where many Morgan County owners find real savings, a combined $6,000 reduction in assessed value that must be filed with the local assessor to take effect.
The 7 municipalities of Morgan County (Decatur, Hartselle, and Trinity among them) each set distinct rates, so entering your exact city rather than the county default produces a materially more accurate estimate.
Rates shift and district lines are occasionally redrawn, so always verify your specific Morgan County figures with the county assessor's office before relying on them for a closing.
