Schertz’s November sales-tax payment falls 53%; Seguin’s rises

Schertz received $2.05 million in November sales-tax revenue, down 53.23% from a year earlier, while Seguin’s payment rose. The figures do not establish the cause or a change in city services.

Schertz's November 2026 city sales-tax allocation fell 53.23% from a year earlier to $2,049,770.36, while Seguin's rose 14.65% to $1,390,750.79. The comparison is between each city's November 2026 and November 2025 payments, not between the two cities.

For Schertz residents, the smaller payment means less sales-tax revenue arrived this month than in November 2025; the allocation table alone does not establish a change in city services. Schertz received $4,383,103.47 in the comparable 2025 period, according to the Comptroller's city figures.

The seven city payments

The November payments ranged from Santa Clara's $5,084 to Schertz's $2,049,770.36. Five of the seven listed cities received more than in November 2025; Schertz and Cibolo received less. These are allocations to cities, not a count of sales inside Guadalupe County. In particular, the Schertz and Selma figures are citywide because both cities extend beyond the county.

The Comptroller's query is by city name. Schertz and Selma totals are citywide.

A monthly fall amid a higher year-to-date total

Schertz's October 2026 allocation was $1,677,914.45, down 48.77% from October 2025. Seguin received $1,178,652.06 that month, up 3.99% from a year earlier. The November results therefore extend the direction of each city's October comparison, although the size of each monthly change differs.

Schertz's November year-to-date total was $52,628,507.90, up 63.84% from $32,120,986.48 at the same point in 2025. That longer-period increase and the sharp November decline describe different comparisons; neither figure by itself identifies the reason for the latest monthly drop.

The November allocation reflects sales from roughly two months earlier. Readers can check the Comptroller's city allocation data for the next monthly comparison; the December release and any city finance explanation will be the next records to examine for Schertz's decline.
