Residential property values remained largely the same last year, the Sedgwick County appraiser said today.
Appraisal notices will be sent out March 1.
Nearly 80 percent of the county's existing residential dwellings remained about the same in value, 16 percent increased in value and 5 percent decreased, appraiser Michael Borchard told county commissioners .
Compared with Kansas and national trends, Borchard said, "Wichita has faired fairly well in the last couple years, although it has flattened out."
