Town-level tax administered by the 169 municipalities. Real property is assessed at 70% of fair market value (CGS 12-62a) and taxed at the mill rate the town sets ($1 of tax per $1,000 of assessment) — rates vary widely by town (OPM publishes the annual list). The motor-vehicle mill rate is capped at 32.46 mills.
