Huge Microsoft data center will push past Foxconn as top taxpayer

For the last several years, the Foxconn Technology Group has been the largest taxpayer in Racine County. But in 2026 it will be dethroned when Microsoft pays property taxes for massive data centers being developed nearby. 

Based on Microsoft’s assessed property value from Racine County, the company’s facilities in Mount Pleasant are worth about $1.224 billion, which means its tax bill is $19.75 million.
