What is the education property tax rate in Vermont towns?

Each town has its own homestead and nonhomestead education tax rate, set every year by the Vermont Department of Taxes. The table on this page shows the FY2027 (July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027) rates the Department published for Northeast Kingdom towns. Rates are per $100 of assessed value.

What is the difference between homestead and nonhomestead rates?

The homestead rate applies to a Vermont resident's primary home once a Homestead Declaration is filed. Second homes, camps, rentals, land and commercial property pay the nonhomestead rate.

Is this my whole property tax bill?

No. These are education tax rates only. Each town adds its own municipal tax rate, so check the town's grand list or tax bill for the total.

How do I estimate the education tax on a home?

Multiply the assessed value by the rate and divide by 100. For example, a $200,000 assessment at a 1.5000 rate is $3,000 a year in education tax, before any property tax credit.
