Bexley Land O' Lakes at a Glance
Last updated: October 2026
Bexley is a Newland community in Land O' Lakes. Land O' Lakes is an unincorporated area of Pasco County, not a city, so county rules and county tax rates apply.
In April 2015, the Pasco County Board of County Commissioners approved splitting the old Bexley Ranch into two parts. Bexley North (about 5,400 acres) stayed with the Bexley family and is a separate project. Bexley South is the Newland community most buyers mean when they say "Bexley."
Bexley South covers about 1,700 acres and is entitled for up to 1,720 homes. That approval allowed 1,200 single-family homes plus 520 apartments and townhomes, along with more than 94,000 square feet of retail, according to the Laker/Lutz News report on the vote.

Bexley CDD Fees for 2026-27
Most Bexley homes pay a yearly Community Development District (CDD) assessment. It shows up on your Pasco County property tax bill, not as a separate HOA invoice. The charge has two parts: operations and maintenance (O&M), which is $1,688.91 for every lot, plus a debt payment on the Series 2016 bonds that depends on your lot type.
| Lot type | FY2026-27 total (O&M + Series 2016 debt) |
|---|---|
| Townhome | $2,263.91 |
| 30' lot | $2,538.91 |
| Villa / 40' lot | $2,588.91 |
| 50' lot | $2,633.91 |
| 60' / Courtyard lot | $2,778.91 |
| 70' lot | $2,963.91 |
| 80' lot | $3,153.91 |

A few things worth knowing about the Bexley CDD:
- O&M went up 3.0%, from $1,639.76 in FY2025-26 to $1,688.91. The total bill rose 1.9%.
- The district covers 1,644 units, including an expansion parcel with 40' and 50' lots.
- On a 50' lot, about 64% of the bill is O&M and 36% is debt ($945).
When the Bexley CDD Debt Ends
The Series 2016 bonds have term bonds maturing in 2036 and 2047, with final maturity in May 2047. The debt line should come off the bill starting around the November 2047 tax bill. At FY2026-27 rates, that would drop a 50' lot by $945 a year and an 80' lot by $1,465 a year.
O&M continues after the bonds are paid and can rise, and refinancing can change the timeline. Since the debt runs into the 2040s, plan for the full bill.
How Bexley Compares

Property Taxes on a Bexley Home
Most parcels in Land O' Lakes fall in the unincorporated Pasco tax area with county fire service. That area's total millage was 16.8169 mills in 2025 and is 16.6966 mills on the 2026 roll, certified October 2026. Areas without county fire service are lower: 14.6944 mills in 2025 and 14.4292 in 2026.
Here's a first-year estimate using 2025 rates, before the CDD charge.
| Just value | Homesteaded (estimate) | Not homesteaded (estimate) |
|---|---|---|
| $450,000 | ~$6,884 | ~$7,568 |
| $750,000 | ~$11,929 | ~$12,613 |
| $1,000,000 | ~$16,133 | ~$16,817 |
Source: Pasco County Property Appraiser millage, tax years 2025 and 2026. Estimates are a Hometrino model: 2025 rates for unincorporated Pasco with county fire, assessed value equal to just value, standard homestead exemptions, CDD and other non-ad valorem charges excluded. Actual homesteaded bills may be slightly lower.
A simple rule of thumb from the model: a homesteaded $450,000 home pays about 1.53% of its price in property taxes before the CDD. Add the CDD line from the chart above for your all-in yearly amount.
