What is the property tax rate on a Kennesaw house?

Property tax on a Kennesaw house comes from multiplying the assessed value, which Georgia sets at 40 percent of fair market value, by a millage rate that Cobb County, the city and the school district each set annually and that changes from year to year. That millage rate is never the same across every jurisdiction, which is why the same assessed value produces a different bill in Cherokee, Cobb, Fulton, Forsyth and Bartow. Joel Boss points Kennesaw buyers to the county tax commissioner for the current rate.
