How this ranking works
We rank every town by the median yearly real-estate tax bill homeowners actually pay (the tax rate column is that bill divided by the median home value). The town with the lowest figure ranks #1. For comparison, the figure for Massachusetts as a whole is $5,992/yr.
Only towns with at least 2,500 residents are ranked; Census estimates for smaller places are too uncertain. Population and income: U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 5-year estimates.
