2001
The table shows total delinquent property taxes for calendar
year 2001 for all Ohio counties. It includes all property
taxes reported as unpaid in calendar year 2001, including
taxes that became delinquent in preceding years which were
still unpaid in 2001. Three categories of delinquent taxes
are presented: tangible personal property; all real property
plus public utility personal property (delinquencies for real
and public utility personal property taxes are not separated
on the county auditor abstracts); and special assessments.
The actual amounts of the delinquencies, and additional
penalties and interest imposed on the delinquent taxes, are
included in the figures.
Total delinquencies were $1.2 billion, a 17.4% increase from
the 2000 total of $985.0 million. Real and public utility
personal property delinquencies comprised $718.0 million of
the calendar year 2001 delinquencies while tangible personal
property delinquencies amounted to $355.4 million. Special
assessment delinquencies totaled $83.1 million.
Among Ohio counties, Cuyahoga had the highest amount of total
delinquencies, with $267.1 million. Approximately $166.5
million of this amount was comprised of real property.

$483,723 (real property accounted for $401,507 of this
