The median property tax rate of 1.61% is slightly lower than Connecticut's 1.74% but more than double the national 0.74%, so owners still pay a notable share of value in taxes.

Assignment and Release Records
Assignment and release records follow a mortgage after it is recorded. An assignment shows the loan moving from one lender or servicer to another, while a release shows the debt was satisfied and the lien removed from the property's title.
Windham County has 126,171 assignment and release records. There are 19,424 assignment documents, recorded from September 21, 2004, to August 15, 2025, and 106,747 release documents, recorded from January 3, 2000, to August 15, 2025.
Researchers can use them to see which lender holds a loan, how it changed hands, and whether past mortgages were closed out. That matters before buying, selling or refinancing, when an unreleased lien could complicate the transaction. The release dates reach back further than the assignments, so older payoffs are easier to confirm than older transfers.
