What these figures carry
- All three portions of the tax bill: lower tier, County and education.
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. Same argument as the levy: the burden and the service are the same number seen from two sides. Nothing on this page is ranked, and the bars are ordered by size rather than by merit.
