Day-to-day spending is up 28% since 2022
Day-to-day services, in dollars, in the years Egg Harbor reported to the Census Bureau. Prices rose too: about 4% a year in 2022–2024.
Day-to-day spending by fiscal year
Per resident: 2022: $12,876 · 2024: $9,123. Per resident it went from $12,876 to $9,123 (down 29%), partly because the Census population behind it changed from 202 to 365.
Building projects, interest and enterprises (hospital, utilities) are left out, so a big construction year doesn’t read as growth.
The typical homeowner pays $3,804 a year
Every local property tax on the home: town, schools and county. About 0.86% of the home’s value, vs 1.42% across Wisconsin.
