Windsor Property Tax
Windsor charges $11.02 per $1,000 of assessed value for fiscal 2027. On the town's median single-family home, assessed at $289,650, the municipal-tax illustration is about $3,192 a year. Rates are set by the town and certified to the Massachusetts Department of Revenue.
The median assessment is FY2026. Applying the FY2027 rate is a municipal-tax scenario, not a current property bill. Separate fire, water or other district levies, special assessments and individual exemptions are excluded. Confirm the property's full bill with the assessor.
The Rate, Year by Year
A rate is not a bill: it moves when the town's total assessed value moves, so a falling rate can sit alongside a rising bill. Both charts are below for that reason.

Since fiscal 2003 the rate has run between $9.43 and $14.38, peaking in fiscal 2005. Across Berkshire County the middle rate is $10.46.
The rate is 23% lower than at that peak. The bill on an average single-family home is not: it went from $1,899 to $3,337, a rise of 76%, and it rose in 17 of those 22 years. A rate is what you are charged per $1,000 of value, and the value moved too.
The Rate on Every Class, Fiscal 2027
Massachusetts certifies a rate for each class of property, not one rate for the town. Windsor charges every class the same, so the residential rate above is the whole story.
All classes: $11.02 per $1,000 of assessed value.
Windsor classifies no land as open space, so there is no separate open-space rate: open land is taxed at whichever class it falls in. A class with no rate here is one the town does not use, which is not the same as a rate of zero.

This series uses the town's AVERAGE single-family value as reported to the Division of Local Services, which is a different figure from the median assessment above. Averages sit above medians wherever a few expensive properties pull them up.
What Else Is on the Bill
- Split rate: Windsor applies a single rate to all classes of property, so businesses and homes pay the same rate per $1,000.
- Community Preservation surcharge: Not adopted, so nothing is added to the bill for it.
- What the rate does not tell you: the assessment is the town's number, not the market's. A house that sells for more than its assessment is taxed on the assessment until the town revalues.
For a specific price rather than the town median, the tax calculator runs it for any figure in any of the 101 towns. For a specific property, check the address and the assessment on file is the one the bill is computed from.

The line under each Residential Rate is its margin from this table's middle of $10.46: left of centre is below it, right of centre is above, and both sides are drawn to the same scale. The middle is this table's own and does not move when you sort. It is a distance, not a position in a league table, and nothing here is ranked.
