Full year

Taxes are received without penalty through December 5 unless the locality has set another date, and localities may instead bill in two installments.
Statewide schedule — read this before you rely on it
Cities and counties commonly set their own dates (many use June 5 and December 5, others October 5), so the December 5 default often does not apply. Variation between counties here is high — treat the dates above as a starting point only.
After the due date the locality adds a penalty of up to 10% plus interest at the rate its ordinance sets.
Local treasurers mail bills in the fall once the commissioner's books are delivered, and payment is penalty-free through December 5.

$
Effective rate 0.55% = this county's median owner-occupied tax bill ($1,827, ACS 2022 5-year estimate) divided by the typical home value at the time ($330,757, Zillow, 2022-12-31). Exemptions the seller holds — homestead, senior, veteran — usually do not transfer with the deed, so a new purchase can run above this figure. The county assessor sets the assessed value; this is an estimate, not a quote.
