In Fillmore, property tax follows California's Proposition 13: about 1% of assessed value plus voter-approved local bonds and assessments, for a typical effective rate near 1.1%-1.25%. Fillmore is in Ventura County, so the Ventura County Assessor sets the assessed value and publishes parcel-level tax detail. Newer tracts can add Mello-Roos; rural parcels may carry other special assessments - verify the exact figure per parcel.
How California property tax works
Proposition 13 caps the base ad valorem rate at 1% of assessed value and limits annual increases to about 2%, with reassessment to market value generally on a change of ownership. Local voter-approved bonds push the effective rate a little above 1%.
