Why we checked itClaims that state budgeting decisions in Concord have caused property tax increases in New Hampshire; verifiable against NH property tax data and budget records.
What we foundNew Hampshire property taxes are genuinely rising and the downshifting mechanism is well-documented, but the characterization of taxes 'skyrocketing through the roof' overstates the measured rate of increase, and the claim that Concord budgeting 'has driven up the cost of everything' extends beyond what the evidence supports.
