Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $408,280 – $509,305, from 12 comparable Clayton 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 Clayton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $478,837 home should be assessed near $450,250.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $4,850 above what the ratio math suggests (1.1%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Clayton home
$1.385 Schools · 54% $0.481 County · 19% $0.702 Town · 27%
This home's own bill implies $2.142 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill

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