Cost is value of car x mil rate, so there's a wide range. Yeah, they'll mail you the bill, due July 31 iirc, and most likely your town website will have a tax link as well where you can look up and pay your taxes. Born free, taxed ' til death.

If you lease it’s in your monthly bill.

Make sure you pay it. Or you can’t register new vehicles. Learned that the hard way lol.

It’s fucking bullshit. Just pay it and don’t ask any questions at all like the rest of us idiots.

Depends. 70% of assessed value x Town mil rate then divide by 1000. That will get you how much your bill will be. Typically due once per year in July.

​

Example: Assessed value of $20k x 32.5 (Random mil rate) / 1000 = $650.

When you get the bill, which is sometimes in July, you have 30 days to pay it so don't worry if it is at or near the due date. If it is over a couple hundred they split it in half so you pay half now then half January 1st.

After you get your first bill, and know what you will have to pay, I'd recommend having a savings for the next one so you aren't scrambling when you get the bill.

Just think of all the value you are getting from paying that tax.
