  • Dc Homeowners' Property Taxes Remain Lowest in The
    An Affiliate of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities 820 First Street NE, Suite 460 Washington, DC 20002 (202) 408-1080 Fax (202) 408-8173 www.dcfpi.org February 27, 2009 DC HOMEOWNERS’ PROPERTY TAXES REMAIN LOWEST IN THE REGION By Katie Kerstetter This week, District homeowners will receive their assessments for 2010 and their property tax bills for 2009. The new assessments are expected to decline modestly, after increasing significantly over the past several years. The new assessments won’t impact homeowners’ tax bills until next year, because this year’s bills are based on last year’s assessments. Yet even though 2009’s tax bills are based on a period when average assessments were rising, this analysis shows that property tax bills have decreased or risen only moderately for many homeowners in recent years. DC homeowners continue to enjoy the lowest average property tax bills in the region, largely due to property tax relief policies implemented in recent years. These policies include a Homestead Deduction1 increase from $30,000 to $67,500; a 10 percent cap on annual increases in taxable assessments; and an 11-cent property tax rate cut. The District also adopted a “calculated rate” provision that decreases the tax rate if property tax collections reach a certain target. As a result of these measures, most DC homeowners have seen their tax bills fall — or increase only modestly — over the past four years. In 2008, DC homeowners paid lower property taxes on average than homeowners in surrounding counties. Among homes with an average sales price of $500,000, DC homeowners paid an average tax of $2,725, compared to $3,504 in Montgomery County, $4,752 in PG County, and over $4,400 in Arlington and Fairfax counties.

    How Washingtonians have shaped and reshaped their neighborhoods in extraordinary ways This exhibition was made possible with support from the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities and the Historic Preservation Fund, administered by the National Park Service, Department of the Interior. In addition, A Right to the City received federal support from the Asian Pacific American Initiatives Pool, administered by the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center, and from the Smithsonian Women’s Committee. The Anacostia Community Museum explores social issues impacting diverse populations of the DC metropolitan area to promote mutual understanding and strengthen community bonds. Director’s Statement As the Anacostia Community Museum celebrates its 50th anniversary, we look forward to all that the future holds. Almost two years ago, we began the challenging and exciting process of revitalizing this museum. Redefining our mission with a hyper-local focus was the first of many important decisions in this undertaking. Washington, DC has a truly rich history with diverse communities, values, and perspectives, making it ripe for exploring the social, economic, and environmental issues affecting our broader world. Born from these unique circumstances is a strong culture of civic engagement and social activism that animates the city. It was true in 1967 when the Anacostia community rallied for a museum that spoke to their everyday experiences, and it remains so today. A Right to the City is a timely exhibition and comes at a pivotal moment for the nation’s capital as our neighborhoods experience rapid and profound transformations. Developed under the direction of chief curator Dr. Samir Meghelli, the exhibition highlights the stories of six Washington neighborhoods and the unsung heroes who have shaped them.
