How to Read This Data
General Tax Rate (3.338%): The tax per $100 of assessed value. Multiply your home's assessed value by this rate to estimate taxes.
Effective Tax Rate (2.549%): A standardized comparison metric. Use this to compare tax burden across different towns—lower is generally better.
Avg Assessment: The average assessed value. Your property's assessment may be higher or lower—check the tax assessor's office for your specific address.
Quick Estimate Formula:
(Your Assessed Value ÷ 100) × 3.338 = Annual Tax
Example: $300,000 = ($300,000 ÷ 100) × 3.338 = $10,014/year
