Where the money goes, where it comes from, property taxes, and how to reach Norway's government.
Where Norway's money goes
Where the money comes from
- Property taxes 100%
Revenue here is well above spending. That usually means Norway collects property taxes for the school district and county and passes them on, so only its own spending is counted above.
Norway didn't report all of its 2022 figures to the Census Bureau, so most of these numbers are the Bureau's estimates.
Who works for Norway
Staff on the town's payroll in March 2022. Pay is March payroll times twelve, so it's approximate.

What homeowners in Norway pay
The median yearly bill homeowners report, covering every local property tax on the home (town, schools, county). The effective rate is that bill divided by the median home value, so it's a rough guide, not the official tax rate. In a town this small the survey estimate has a wide margin.
