Unique to the state of Virginia is it's tax structure. Cities and
counties are two separate taxing authorities. If you reside in a county,
you only owe county taxes. If you reside in a city, you only
owe city taxes. If you live in a town, you owe for both the town and county
in which the town is located. This holds true for both persoanl and property
taxes. There are NO separate school taxes in either the cities or counties.
If you own or run a business, there may also be an equipment tax, which varies
by locality.
