As New Hampshire's public schools continue to rely heavily on local property taxes in the wake of annually decreased state support, school districts recognize the growing financial burden on taxpayers. They remain committed to responsible budgeting, operational efficiency, and making the most of your tax dollar while maintaining quality educational opportunities for students.

As a reminder, your final tax bill covers the entire tax year and is calculated by taking your current assessment divided by 1,000 multiplied by the tax rate minus what you pre-paid on the first bill.  You can see both your current property tax bill and past bills by using the NH Tax Kiosk.

Tax bills have been mailed by the Town Clerk–Tax Collector’s Office. They have a payment due date of December 11, 2026. For your convenience, payments can be made by mail, in person or easily and securely online neumoPayments PropertyTaxes.

Residents with questions regarding their bills may contact the Town Clerk–Tax Collector. Questions regarding property valuations may be directed to the Assessing Office. Both offices can be reached at (603) 772-4741.
