What the JCP CDD assessment really costs per home, where it appears on your bill, and how it splits between operations and bond debt — from the district’s own budget documents.
If you buy in Julington Creek Plantation, plan on $1,385.44 single-family / $845.57 townhome per year in CDD assessments on top of property taxes, HOA dues, and insurance. It is billed as a non-ad-valorem line on the November tax bill — you pay it with your taxes, whether or not you use the amenities it funded.

The HOA, by contrast, runs about $580/year (realMLS listing feed (median of 182 active listings)) — in Julington Creek Plantation, as in most CDD communities, the district funds the major amenities, which is why the HOA line is small and the tax-bill line is not.
Current market context: median recent sale about $520,000, typical market time 29 days (MLS community statistics, dated on the community page).
The operations portion funds the district’s ongoing services and amenities and is re-adopted in a public budget every year — it can rise. The debt portion repays the infrastructure bonds that built the community and varies by bond series and lot; on some lots it can be paid off early, which is worth asking about in any offer. Full district-by-district tables for the county are on our St. Johns County CDD database.
