A Sullivan County Republican Committee View: Why the Property Tax Narrative Misses the Point
In New Hampshire, property taxes are not a theoretical issue. They show up in escrow payments, rent increases, and “maybe we should move” conversations at kitchen tables across Sullivan County.

Think about buying milk at Market Basket or Hannaford. A gallon of whole milk is a gallon of whole milk. If Market Basket charges $3.49 and Hannaford charges $3.79, you know exactly what you’re getting at each store. The milk at one store will work just as well in your cereal as the milk from the other.
