Common questions
What is the property tax rate in Lake Angelus, Michigan?

Does the tax rate change by address within Lake Angelus?
Yes. Lake Angelus spans 2 school districts and the rate runs from 30.3952 to 34.3472 mills depending on the district your address falls in — a difference of $692 a year on a $350,000 home. The district table above lists every rate.
How much are property taxes on a $350,000 home in Lake Angelus?
About $5,319 a year at the homestead rate. Michigan taxes the taxable value, not the sale price, and after a sale that value uncaps to roughly half what you paid — so $350,000 is taxed on about $175,000.
Why is the tax bill on a Lake Angelus listing lower than what I would pay?
Because the figure on the listing is the seller's. Michigan caps annual taxable-value growth while an owner keeps the property, and that cap is removed the year after it sells. The longer the seller owned it, the further their bill sits below yours.
How does Lake Angelus compare with the rest of Oakland County?
It is the 13 lowest of 52 municipalities in Oakland County and 98 of 236 across the eight-county region — 3.99 mills below the county median.
