A real, disclosed nominal-vs-effective-rate nuance
Windham's 2025 NOMINAL municipal tax rate was set at just $14.15 per $1,000 of value -- notably lower in nominal terms than some other NH towns -- even though its EFFECTIVE rate runs higher, a real, disclosed consequence of Windham's substantially higher assessed home values.
