How the City has assessed property in Westhampton, 2022–2026.
Of Westhampton's $259M in assessed-value growth since 2022, about 19% ($49M) is new construction: new buildings and major projects. The rest is the City reassessing existing property at higher values. How we tell construction from reassessment →
