Residential Class

Definition

The residential class of property includes all property where the predominant use is for living purposes. This would include single-family, two-family, three-family dwellings and condominium units.

It also includes vacant land where the most likely use would be residential development. Apartment buildings of four or more units, hotels, motels, and resorts are classified as commercial property. The residential class represents roughly 64% of the total assessed value of the city.
