Wisconsin Turns the Corner on Equalized Property Values

Residential property values in Wisconsin rise after 5-year slide. (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 8/15/2014)

After 5 consecutive years of decline, the total equalized property value for the state increased 2.6%, or $479 billion, in 2013.

Go to the 2013 report of statewide equalized property values.

First view close-up.

When I click on "Dane", I get to a list of Dane County municipalities..

Dane County equalized property values increased 4.3% in 2013, higher than the state average.

To do another search, you need to observe the following navigation tip.  (Highlight added.)

 

In the following sample, percentages for Dane County municipalities range from -8.4% (Village of Maple Bluff)  to 16.8% (City of Verona). 

Interesting that 2 of the county's wealthiest communities are moving in opposite directions.  (Maple Bluff is where the Governor's Executive Residence is located.  What's that expression?  "There goes the neighborhood!")

And perhaps we'll see this headline in the Verona Press.
