HUTCHINSON, Kan.— Though not entirely driven by positive factors, sales tax for Reno County was up again for October compared with the same period in 2020.

While most of the solid numbers in 2020 were due to strong shopping trends during the pandemic, most of the 2021 numbers are being driven by inflation.

Sales tax revenue for October was $468,202 compared with $428,350 in 2020. It's the eighth month this year that sales tax numbers have been above the $400,000 mark. To date the county has taken in $4.2 million in sales tax. October numbers reflect shopping trends for the month of August.
