Reading the Cleveland numbers
Cleveland ISD adopted exactly the same maintenance-and-operations figure, 0.667%, as Willis ISD and Tomball ISD. Everything separating the three totals is debt service: Cleveland's 0.357% keeps it $32 a year under Willis and $116 under Tomball at $300,000 — a clean illustration of why the two halves of a Texas rate are worth reading separately. Fourth from the bottom overall, Cleveland sits at the entrance to the tightest stretch of the table, where five districts fit inside $243 a year of each other.
A $300,000 home zoned to Cleveland ISD pays $668 more school tax each year than the same home in Richards ISD, the county's lowest-rate district, and $693 less than in New Caney ISD, its highest.

The City of Cleveland levy on top
The 2025 city table lists City of Cleveland at 0.630%. Inside the city limits — in the Montgomery County portion, for cities that cross county lines — a Cleveland-zoned bill runs 2.184% of value — $6,553 at $300,000 — while the same home outside any city stays at 1.554%. City limits and district lines are independent boundaries; a parcel can be inside either, both, or neither.
3 special districts give Cleveland as their city in the Comptroller's district database. A parcel inside one adds that district's own rate on top of all of the above — the district index carries each rate and each district's reported debt.
