Richmond County property tax rate vs the rest of New York

Richmond County's assessor sets your home's assessed value, and local millage rates from the county, municipality and school district are applied to it; the 0.92% effective rate rolls all of that into one share of market value.

The calculator above does this and shows both the annual bill and the monthly escrow amount.
