Notes:  Includes property taxes of all local governments within the county.  Assessed Value was divided by three from 1977 through 2001.
Gross Tax Rate is Gross Levy, divided by Assessed Value, times one hundred.  Net Tax Rate is Net Levy, divided by Assessed Value,
times one hundred.  Both are expressed as "dollars per $100 assessed value."  PTRC% is Property Tax Replacement Credits as a percentage
of the Gross Levy.  Net Levy calculation does not include state and local homestead credits.
Pay year is the year property taxes are paid, on assessed values from the year before.
