Tax layers

Three bills. Three offices. County-published millage.

Bucks County property owners receive separate county, municipal, and school district tax bills. The rates below are transcribed from the county's official millage sheet and apply to a property's county assessed value — a fraction of market value — not its sale price.

County millage (2026) 29.65 mills official
East Rockhill Township millage (2026) 12.235 mills official
Pennridge SD millage (2025–2026) 140.1892 mills official
Combined total 182.0742 mills

Estimate only: assessed value × mills ÷ 1,000 per layer, before the homestead exclusion or any interim adjustments. The county bill is what the offices say it is, not what a website computes.

Source: Bucks County Board of Assessment — 2026 Millage Rates (sheet dated 2/4/2026). Retrieved 2026-07-22. Estimate a bill: assessed value × mills ÷ 1,000 — try the tax calculator, and look up assessed value in the county property search. Millage rates are provided by local taxing authorities. Verify with the Board of Assessment, your municipal tax collector, and your school district before relying on any figure.

For homestead exclusion and assessment appeals, start with the Board of Assessment. See the tax intelligence hub for the full three-layer explainer.

Parks & getting around

Daily life in East Rockhill Township.

State park

Part of the park's 5,000-plus acres reaches into the township — the lake is a neighbor, not a day trip.

East Rockhill sits between Perkasie’s sidewalks and Lake Nockamixon’s shoreline, and that’s the pitch in one sentence: Pennridge schools and borough conveniences five minutes one way, the state park’s water and trails five minutes the other. The township’s own parks fill in the everyday playground-and-pavilion needs.

Housing is a mix of older village pockets and newer single-family streets, generally priced a notch below Perkasie proper for comparable space. Like the rest of Upper Bucks, it’s car-country — Route 313 and 563 are the working roads, and the Quakertown Turnpike interchange is the fastest way out of the county.
