What makes Connecticut different
Town-level mill rates swing the escrow line by hundreds of dollars a month between adjacent towns.
Property tax is the line that shapes a Connecticut budget. The 1.79% effective rate is the 4th highest in the country, adding $597 a month on a median $400,000 home — $7,160 a year that never amortises away and rises with assessed value long after the loan is paid off.
A top state income tax rate of 6.99% makes mortgage interest and property tax deductions worth more here than in a no-income-tax state — though the $10,000 SALT cap limits how much of the $7,160 annual property tax bill actually reduces what you owe.
Connecticut is an expensive place to buy. The median $400,000 is the 19th highest in the country and $57,500 above the national median, putting a 20% deposit at roughly $80,000 before any closing costs.
