YOUR LOCAL TAX DOLLARS

Property owners in Upper Southampton Township are subject to taxes levied by three separate taxing authorities - Bucks County, the Centennial School District, and the Township. Property taxes are based on the assessment of each property. To determine your assessed market value multiply your assessment by approximately eight.

Tax rates are established separately each year by the three taxing authorities. The County and township rates are combined and bills are mailed around March 1st of each year. Bills for the Centennial School District are mailed around July 1st of each year. In both instances, the discount amount is payable up to two months after receipt of the tax bill, the gross amount up to four months, and any amount outstanding beyond four months carries a penalty of 10%.
