A real, disclosed housing-price spread

Zillow's Home Value Index cited $330,399, while a separate source's June 2026 median listing price ran notably higher at $419,000 -- this record discloses both rather than resolving to one figure (base record).

Property tax runs genuinely the highest in this North Country batch

Ownwell's cited 3.14% effective property tax rate runs above New Hampshire's own already-high statewide picture (1.82%-1.93%), and the highest of the four markets in this project's North Country batch (base record).

New Hampshire's real no-income-tax, no-sales-tax structure

New Hampshire levies no broad-based tax on wages/salaries and no general sales tax, applying in Plymouth as statewide, alongside a real 8.5% Meals & Rooms Tax (base record).

A genuinely low local unemployment rate

Plymouth's 2.3% unemployment rate in 2026 is a real, favorable cost-of-living-adjacent factor, reflecting the town's role as a regional employment center (base record).
