Estimating your bill

To estimate: multiply the parcel's assessed value (not market value) by the combined millage per $1,000. In Chester County, assessments are usually a fraction of market value — the "Common Level Ratio" (CLR) published annually by the PA State Tax Equalization Board reconciles the two.
