Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $572,467 – $759,878, from 12 comparable Jackson 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 Jackson assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $648,316 home should be assessed near $644,426.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $42,226 below what the ratio math suggests (6.6%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Jackson home
$0.781 Schools · 56% $0.320 County · 23% $0.284 Town · 21%
Step 5 · The bill

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