Here are the 2006 total property tax rates for the Texas counties. These are given in cents per $100 of appraisal value.

Travis County (Austin) $0.4499

Denton County (Dallas) $0.23192

Tarrant County (Fort Worth) $0.3715

Harris County (Houston) $0.40239

Bexar County (San Antonio) $0.326866

I have property in a Texas county with a total rate at almost $0.75 so all of these I would consider to be very low. The 2006 property tax rates in Texas counties were as high as $0.9936 and as low as $0.23192. However, it is my guess that most people did little tax research before moving to Texas. They were just moving away from long winters and snow.
