Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $198,953 – $348,039, from 12 comparable Ewing sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Ewing assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $256,584 home should be assessed near $162,161.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $20,961 below what the ratio math suggests (12.9%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Ewing home
$2.100 Schools · 52% $0.894 County · 22% $1.057 Town · 26%
Step 5 · The bill

Paying about right
This home's ratio lands inside Ewing's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
