It’s that time of the year again, and if you are a property owner in Douglas County, watch your mail for the delivery of your 2022 property tax bill or tax notification during the last two weeks of January.
As you review your property tax bill or tax notification, know that while you pay your taxes to the County Treasurer’s Office, the County Treasurer is tasked with distributing the funds to the various taxing authorities associated with an individual property.
“Where you live in the County determines which taxing authorities serve you, how much your property tax is, and ultimately where your property tax dollars are distributed by our Office,” said Dave Gill, Douglas County Treasurer. “Typically, less than a third of the property tax you pay stays with County Government.”
Visit yourdougcotaxes.com to access a map-based view of individual properties with detailed information on how much of your property taxes each taxing authority receives, as well as links to Assessor and Treasurer data. You can search by address or zoom in on the map to view individual parcel details about Douglas County properties. (Internet Explorer is no longer fully supported.)

Is your mailing address current? One reason you may not have received your property tax information could be that your mailing address is not current in our records, which are maintained by the County Assessor. As the Treasurer’s Office bills for property taxes only once per year, it is critical that your mailing address be kept current, or you may not receive your property tax statement. If you are a property owner in Douglas County and have not received your property tax notification by mid-February, please email the Douglas County Treasurer’s Office at [email protected] or change your address with the County Assessor online.
If your property taxes are not paid, your property may be at risk for inclusion in the County’s annual tax lien sale.
The Treasurer’s Office provides convenient online resources such as: Guide to Your Tax Statement and Important Property tax Payment Due Dates.
