r/bennington

I’m a single mid 30s guy thats been grinding to buy a property and property tax in bennington is confusing the heck out of me. So mill rates about $31/1000 with education included but everything seems to be assessed way under actual sale prices. 300k homes assessed at 100k so they’re paying 3k in taxes.

I see bennington is reassessing as we speak, so does that mean if i buy the 300k property my taxes are going to be $9000/year when reassesed? Its a massive difference in monthly payments so im trying to get a better understanding.

Hi! I’m visiting the Bennington area and wanted to bring home great cider to share with my friends (we are doing a tasting at the end of the month for our Wine and more club).

Any recommendations would be welcome! I see that there are some local spots but couldn’t tell when they were open.

Interested in hard cider and non-alcoholic. Tend to like less sweet drinks but some of my friends adore the sugary ice wine types too.

Weirdly, I could only find info on their Facebook page, not on their actual website. https://www.facebook.com/DowntownBennington

Haberdasher, Knapps, Jay's, Village Chocolate Shoppe, Scarlett Creation, and Fiddlehead - at least! - are participating.

The Hemmings cruise-in is also happening, plus there will be live music.
