Taxes

Property taxes in Greenwich are based on assessments statutorily limited to 70 percent of property market value. The current mill rate* of $11.51 establishes residential taxes at a lower level than most Westchester and Fairfield County towns, yet Greenwich provides an unusual number of quality services to its residents. This is made possible by the town's conservative fiscal policy and a tradition of volunteerism that has been cited as an example for communities across the country.

*$11.51 for every $1,000.00 of taxable property for fiscal year July 1, 2005 June 30, 2006.

(In areas connected to municipal sewers, mill rate is $12.09 for every $1,000.00 of taxable property.)
