Warrick County Assessor, Auditor, and Treasurer

Warrick County uses Indiana's standard three-office property tax model. The Assessor values all real property in the county as of January 1 each year under IC 6-1.1-4. The Auditor applies approved deductions and calculates the net annual tax for each parcel. The Treasurer issues bills and handles all collection activity, including online payments and delinquent accounts.

All three offices are at the Warrick County Courthouse in Boonville. Warrick County's proximity to Evansville makes it a growth county, with new residential subdivisions and commercial development adding to the assessment rolls each year. That growth means the assessor's office regularly processes a high volume of new parcel records and homestead deduction applications from new property owners.

The Warrick County Auditor handles all deduction filings. Homestead deductions, over-65 programs, veteran exemptions, and other Indiana deduction programs are filed here. The January 5 deadline applies every year under IC 6-1.1-12. In a fast-growing county like Warrick, this deadline is particularly important for new buyers in subdivision developments who need to file before the cutoff to lock in homestead savings.
