Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $489,048 – $556,195, from 12 comparable Clayton sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,724 sq ft.
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 $522,521 home should be assessed near $491,326.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $147,426 below what the ratio math suggests (30.0%).
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 $2.146 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Clayton sale · assessed ÷ market

Keep quiet and enjoy it
This home's assessment ratio sits below the Clayton pack — the frozen assessment is treating it kindly. It pays less than a fresh look would charge.
