What these figures carry
- The municipality's own levy. Excludes the County and education portions collected on the same bill.
The order changes with the basis. Which of these populations is the right divisor is not a technical detail: the tax base is properties, the services are used by whoever is present, and roughly 54% of the dwellings in this county are not occupied by permanent residents. No source states how much of the year a seasonal dwelling is occupied, so this atlas will not choose for you.
Which way is better
Contested. A lower levy is better for the household paying it and worse for the municipality that has to rebuild a bridge. The atlas reports it and declines to rank it. Nothing on this page is ranked, and the bars are ordered by size rather than by merit.
