(on Archives.gov) Passed on May 20, 1862, the Homestead Act accelerated the settlement of the western territory by granting adult heads of families 160 acres of surveyed public land for a minimal filing fee and 5 years of continuous residence on that land.
The District of Columbia, for example, provides a homestead exemption for all homeowners equal to $67,500 of the property's assessed value. It also provides eligible seniors age 65 or older with a credit of 50% of their property taxes due.
