About these numbersSources, county file January 2025
Tax value
Tax value from the county’s last revaluation, not a market price. County file, January 2025.
Gross assessed value (the county assessor's market value-in-use, trended every year), not a market estimate. Farmland is assessed by the state's base-rate formula, well below what farmland sells for.
Estimate
Rough estimate: based on the county's assessment of this land, scaled by recent sale prices of land assessed like it in Monroe and nearby counties. Not tested to our accuracy standard. Half of past estimates were within ±25%; the range covers about 8 in 10. Land only; any building is not included.
Parcel outline
The outline and its edge lengths are measured on the parcel map the map draws; the aerial loads from the public imagery named under it.
