No comparison or trend for Mount Lebanon yet

The fair comparison uses 2022, the last year the Census Bureau counted every government (later years are a sample), and Mount Lebanon’s 2022 operating figures are mostly a Census estimate, so they aren’t compared. It reported 2022 only, so there is no trend yet either. The next full count is 2027.

The median bill homeowners report to the Census survey (bills of $10,000+ are reported as “$10,000+”). The effective rate is that bill ÷ the median home value: a rough guide, not the official tax rate. In a town this small the estimate has a wide margin.
