Property taxes

Katy property taxes by utility district

Most of Katy is unincorporated, so water, sewer and drainage come from municipal utility districts (MUDs) and similar districts, each with its own tax. That rate is the main reason total tax rates differ from one neighborhood to the next; county, school and other rates are largely shared.
