Property tax figures on this page use Osceola County’s typical millage of 15.23; municipal and special-district millage varies inside the county. Insurance uses Citizens’ Osceola County average of $1,735/year; a wind-mitigation inspection and roof age can move a private quote a long way in either direction.
