What this means for you
- City tax rates differ more than the totals. Tyrone’s 2025 town rate was 2.889 mills and Peachtree City’s 5.840, but the school levy, 19.600 mills in Fayette County, is the biggest part of every Fayette bill.
- Senoia is a different county and school district. Its county and school rates, and its schools, are Coweta County’s.
- Check the address, not the mailing city. Zones and tax districts follow city limits and school lines, not ZIP codes.
