The total tax rate consists of millage rates for our public schools, Bloomfield Township and Oakland County. School millage rates vary among school districts. There are four school districts within Bloomfield Township: Avondale, Bloomfield Hills, Birmingham, and Pontiac. Each school district has a homestead rate for the residence owned and occupied by the taxpayer and a non-homestead rate for property not occupied as a principal residence by the taxpayer.
All funds collected by Bloomfield Township are re-distributed to the various taxing authorities on a bi-weekly basis. Each funding authority uses these funds to cover their fiscal year's activities. The millage rate times the taxable value (per thousand) is your tax obligation (millage rate x [taxable value/1,000]=tax obligation).

Tax Information
Property tax collection is the main function of the Bloomfield Township Treasurer's Office. While the actual assessed and taxable values of property are determined in the Assessor's Office, the tax billings and collections originate from the Treasurer's Office.
