How much of my Upland Property Taxes go to City Services?
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting many Upland residents over the last few years, asking people what their priorities are, and working on ways to bring those priorities to life. One question I’ve heard several times is “How much of my Upland property taxes go to City services?” It’s a great question and the information can be difficult to find. As you can see in the graphic, the majority of the funding goes to the State & County.
