Informational notice
Figures describe the median homeowner household in Concordia Parish as reported to the Census Bureau; your parcel can differ. Not tax, legal, or financial advice: check the county assessor or a qualified professional before decisions that depend on these numbers.
How to read this county's bill
The bill here climbed steeply over 2020-2024, up 74% from $221 to $384. These ACS medians describe the reported change; they do not identify whether a levy, assessment, home value, or change in the responding households caused it.
The largest single group of owner-occupied homes in this county reports no real estate tax at all: 2,065 of 5,031 homes (41.0%). When that group leads, the county median does not describe the most common reported amount.
Both sides of this comparison sit low: household income here is in the bottom quarter of US counties, and so is the effective tax rate. The median bill works out at 1.0% of median household income, which is the arithmetic of a modest levy on modest earnings rather than of any deliberate relief.
The share above is the median annual bill divided by median household income, a ratio of two county-level medians rather than a household-by-household figure.
What Concordia Parish Homeowners Actually Pay
Most Concordia Parish homeowners are not billed at all: 2,065 of 5,031 owner-occupied homes (41.0%) report no real estate tax. A median bill describes only the minority who pay one.

Census ACS 2024, table B25102. Bands and the no-tax share sum to 100%.

Each row is a separate ACS 5-year release, and consecutive releases share four of their five survey years. The percentage beside each bill is therefore movement in the published estimate against the previous release, not a single year's tax change. The two releases largely describe the same households. For change over time, compare releases that do not overlap.
