Hebron can be an incredible town, but it’s not cheap in the ways people assume. My goal isn’t to sell you on Hebron — it’s to help you understand the real financial picture before you buy.

👉 If you’re deciding between Hebron and nearby towns like Marlborough, Colchester, or Glastonbury, I’m happy to walk through the real monthly numbers with you — taxes, utilities, and long-term costs — before you commit to a town.

Current Mill Rate Comparison (Approximate):

• Hebron: ~34.50 mills
• Marlborough: ~37.52 mills
• Colchester: ~29.92 mills
• Glastonbury: ~31.93 mills

A few mills may not sound like much, but over time it can mean thousands of dollars per year in carrying costs. Also remember, mil rate is only part of what determines taxes, the assessed value is the other half.

Hebron is best for buyers who value privacy, land, and a rural lifestyle — and who understand the long-term cost of maintaining a home without municipal services.
