Tax RatesComparable properties in similarly well-located, coastal communities are far more expensive and subject to much higher taxes than ours.

Counties and towns collect annual real estate and personal property taxes. If you live in a town, you pay these taxes to both the town and the county in which it is located. Real estate assessments are generally much lower than the actual selling prices. Personal property tax applies to items like vehicles, boats, trailers and farm equipment.

LOCAL TAXESTax rates expressed in dollars per $100 of assessed value. Rates subject to change effective April 1, 2010. Basis for personal property taxes varies by locality.
