Moultonborough has one of the lowest tax rates in the state. Ossipee is on the low side as well, but almost double what Moultonborough is. Belmont, Sanbornton, Tilton are all most 3 times that of Moultonborough. You need to really look at the rates for each town and what services you get.

On the chance of sounding ignorant, what do you mean? I know you mean to look at the tax rates, which I do when I look at houses on the market, but how do I find the rates for towns? By services, do you mean: police, fire, hospitals, and such? Your way of doing taxes is some what different than what I'm used to.

My head is about to burst with all this wonderful information... Thank you, everyone for helping me!

You can Google tax rates for towns. As for services, what you mentioned and things like school systems, trash pick up or dump, fire and ems staffing (24 hr, days, nights, weekends?). Or the services you currently have where you live now. I would also consider condition of town buildings to see if the town will need some sort of bond for a new $100 million school!

Oregon, this explains the taxes and on the right is a list of towns with the rate per thousand dollars of valuation.
