I hate to clue you back, but those stats have nothing to do with many towns, ones that have very low taxes.
Freedom minded people usually look into this when they buy.
I’ll put it this way: My house here cost $100k more than my last house (and its a considerably bigger house here), but my property taxes here are still 70% less.
I also no longer pay state income tax.
Sales tax is now gone.
No association fee (by choice).
Fuel is cheaper.
Electricity is definitely cheaper.
Go try Illinois or California on for size, then try to talk about how expensive or disproportionate it is here.
It’s far cheaper to live here.

It’s an average for the state. So maybe you live in a town nobody wants to have kids in, lucky you. Let me guess Moultonborough? It’s the number of kids that makes it vary so wildly. You stated it as if it applied to the whole state. It does not. Many towns around the lakes are quite expensive. Some towns are up to $35 on $1000.
On average, MA is cheaper on property tax.
Now it’s electricity too. You’re living in la la land. Northeast has some the highest electric rates in the country. NH is cheaper than MA but your comparing to a state that is very high. MA also has better net metering rates which makes Solar a bit more attractive.
