Maine Property Taxes
Community rates & comparisons

Local government in Maine is primarily supported by local property taxes. Until the early 1950s, the property tax was the only major tax in Maine.

In 1953, the sales tax on retail transactions was enacted, and in 1969, the states personal income tax was adopted. Over the last 50 years, neither the sales nor the income tax has come close to generating the governmental revenues generated by the property tax.
