Western Texas College Serves the Region from Snyder

Western Texas College opened in 1971. It is a two-year community college in Snyder. As a college district, it charges a property tax to owners in its area. That makes it one of the seven taxing units the Scurry County Appraisal District handles.

If you own property in Scurry County, the WTC tax rate shows up on your total property tax bill. It is separate from the county rate and from your local school district rate. New residents often miss junior college districts when adding up their tax costs. The Texas Comptroller's county directory lists all seven active taxing units for Scurry County.
