What is the property tax rate on a Dewees Island house?

Dewees Island property taxes come from the home's assessed value multiplied by a millage rate that the county and any applicable district set every year, so no single rate applies across years or budgets. An owner-occupied primary residence on Dewees Island is assessed differently than a second home or rental, which changes the tax bill even at the same market value. Because the rate changes annually and is set locally, the current figure should come from the Charleston County assessor rather than a fixed number repeated online.
