As we were researching Berkshire 2026 property tax rates by town, I found this interesting article on an analysis of Massachusetts 2026 property levies, assessed values and tax rates. It compares historical data on tax levies and assessed values and then provides FY2026 statistics. Finally, it reports on tax rates and shifts between property classes. The data shows that in the last 10 years, property tax levies 50.6% or by $7.7 billion, from $15.2 billion to $22.9 billion over this time. In 10 years, property values rose by 85.6%, or $880.9 billion. For those who love a deep dive into data, enjoy some eye opening numbers!
