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
Warminster Township millage (2026) 24.06 mills official
Centennial SD millage (2025–2026) 172.6563 mills official
Combined total 226.3663 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 Warminster Township.

Local park
Warminster Community Park — Warminster Township

The township's large central park — trails, fields, and the community amphitheater.

Roads
PA 263 (York Road) / Street Road (PA 132)

The township's two retail-and-commute spines, connecting to Doylestown and the Turnpike corridor.

Warminster’s headline amenity is its train: the Warminster Line terminates here, which means guaranteed seats and one of Central Bucks’ most predictable rail commutes. The station’s park-and-ride catches drivers from Warrington, Ivyland, and Northampton too — a real advantage when you’re comparing otherwise similar split-level neighborhoods.

Warminster Community Park is the local counterweight — a genuinely large township park built on former Navy land, with trails and an amphitheater summer series. The lifestyle here is practical first-ring suburbia: York Road and Street Road for errands, the train for work, and a bigger yard per dollar than the towns one exit closer to the city.

Official verification

A Warminster Township address is presumed to sit in Centennial SD, but boundaries split streets — confirm the assignment for the exact parcel. Assessment matters more than the $418,600 median suggests: Bucks County assesses at a fraction of market value, so two similar Warminster Township homes can carry very different bills.
