Cumberland's 2026 residential property tax rate ran cited at $16.72 per $1,000 of assessed value, which this record converts to an approximate 1.672% decimal rate -- modestly above Rhode Island's own ~1.35% statewide average.
A real, disclosed methodology caveat
A municipal mill rate is not always identical to the 'effective rate' aggregators like the Tax Foundation calculate -- this record did not independently reconcile Cumberland's current assessment ratio to fully bridge that gap this pass.
Rhode Island's statewide income and sales tax
A flat 7% sales tax with no local add-ons and a three-bracket income tax topping out at 5.99% apply in Cumberland as statewide.
