Where is property taxed?
One of the most difficult problems in taxing property is determining “situs”, its physical location for tax purposes. This area is often in dispute, especially if a taxpayer owns property in more than one place. It is especially difficult when the property is movable, such as motor home or trailer.

The general rule is that real property is taxable in the county where the land is located, notwithstanding the owner’s residence. On the other hand, personal property is generally taxable in the county where the taxpayer resides, although a few jurisdictions assess personal property in the city or town in which the property is situated.
