Rural Property Tax Delinquency and Recession in Agriculture

Abstract

Agricultural recession causes the property tax delinquency rate to increase in rural counties. The annual volume of unpaid property taxes as a percent of the tax levy is regressed on the farm debt-asset ratio, farm and nonfarm income, and the ratio of the interest rate to the delinquency penalty rate. Data from thirteen agriculturally-dependent Indiana counties are used. Increases in the debt-asset ratio and decreases in farm and nonfarm income are found to increase delinquency. Delinquency is also used as a source of capital when interest rates exceed the penalty rate.
