Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $364,114 – $458,979, from 12 comparable Vernon 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 Vernon assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $406,878 home should be assessed near $374,084.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $70,084 below what the ratio math suggests (18.7%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Vernon home
$1.368 Schools · 58% $0.438 County · 19% $0.539 Town · 23%
