"Providing secure
income remains
our top priority"
 
The objective of the Nuveen Tax-Free Money Market Funds is to provide as high a
level of current tax-free income as is consistent with stability of principal
and the maintenance of liquidity. It is a pleasure to report that for the year
ended February 28, 1995, Nuveen's Tax-Free Money Market Funds met their
objectives, providing yields that compared favorably with those available from
both tax-exempt and taxable short-term alternatives.
  The 7-day annualized yield for the funds covered in this report ranged from
3.33% to 3.51% on February 28. To equal these yields, an investor in the 36%
federal income tax bracket would need to earn at least 5.20% on taxable
alternatives.
  Since February 1994, the Federal Reserve Board raised interest rates seven
times to fend off future inflation. As a result, the funds' yields increased
more than 70% over the course of the year. In this environment, we continue to
look for opportunities to capture attractive yields in different market sectors
and over many types of municipal securities, including tax-free variable rate
demand notes, tax and revenue anticipation notes, commercial paper, and selected
certificates of participation. The benefits of this type of diversification
combine with share

price stability, daily liquidity, and investment convenience to make Nuveen Tax-
Free Money Market Funds some of the best vehicles conservative, tax-conscious
investors can find for their short-term funds.
 Our approach to investing has provided more than one million Nuveen investors
with the tax-free income they need to help realize their dreams and goals and to
improve the quality of their lives year after year. We are confident that it
will continue to do so in the future.
 We appreciate your trust in our family of funds, and we look forward to helping
you meet your tax-free investment objectives in the future.


Sincerely,


[SIGNATURE OF RICHARD J. FRANKE]

Answering your 
questions


We spoke recently with Tom
Spalding, head of Nuveen's portfo-
lio management team, and asked
him about developments in the
municipal market and the outlook 
for Nuveen's tax-free funds.


How did the Federal 
Reserve Board's moves
to raise short-term
interest rates affect
the performance of
the funds?
 
The Fed's moves certainly affected our money market funds' performance over the
past year. Yields have moved up significantly, which is good news for income-
oriented investors.
  By raising short-term interest rates aggressively in recent months, the
Federal Reserve has demonstrated its commitment to fighting inflation, which
should be good news for all municipal investors. As long as inflation-the
primary factor affecting investment values-remains under control, the
fundamentals for strong municipal performance are in place.

Tom Spalding, head 
of Nuveen's portfolio 
management team, 
answers investors' 
questions on develop-
ments in the 
municipal market.


A number of fund
managers have
encountered problems
recently related to
the use of derivative
securities. Do you use
derivatives in your 
portfolios?

 
Over the last year, participants in the financial services industry, including
securities dealers, underwriters and investment advisers, received much
attention in the press relating to the use of certain types of derivative
financial instruments in the management of portfolios, including those of mutual
funds. There are many different types of derivative investments available in the
market today, including those derivatives whose market values respond to
interest rate changes with greater volatility than do others. In general,
derivatives used to speculate on the future course of interest rates pose the
greatest risk, while derivatives used for hedging purposes present less risk
and, if used properly, can often reduce the probability of loss (while
sacrificing upside potential). Synthetic money market securities generally
present no greater risk to investors than ordinary money market securities.
 Although the Funds are authorized to invest in such financial instruments, and
may do so in the future, they did not make any such investments during the
fiscal year ended February 28, 1995, other than a limited amount of synthetic
money market securities.

                                NUVEEN TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET FUNDS ANNUAL REPORT
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                                               FEBRUARY 28, 1995
                 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
                 At February 28, 1995, the money market Funds (the "Funds")
                 covered in this report are Nuveen Tax-Free Reserves, Inc., a
                 nationally diversified Fund, Nuveen California Tax-Free Fund,
                 Inc. (comprised of the Nuveen California Tax-Free Money
                 Market Fund) and Nuveen Tax-Free Money Market Fund, Inc.
                 (comprised of the Nuveen Massachusetts and New York Tax-Free
                 Money Market Funds).
                  The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of
                 1940 as open-end, diversified management investment
                 companies.
                  Each Fund invests in tax-exempt money market instruments.
                 Shares of the state Funds are issued in three series: (1) the
                 "Service Plan" series intended for purchase by or through
                 banks and other organizations who have agreed to perform
                 certain services for their customers who are shareholders of
                 this series of the Fund, (2) the "Distribution Plan" series
                 intended for purchase by or through securities dealers who
                 have agreed to perform distribution and administrative
                 services for their customers who are shareholders of this
                 series of the Fund and (3) the "Institutional" series
                 intended for purchase by trustees, bank trust departments and
                 investment bankers or advisers.
                  Each Fund issues its own shares, at net asset value which
                 the Fund will seek to maintain at $1.00 per share without
                 sales charge.
                  The following is a summary of significant accounting
                 policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their
                 financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
                 accounting principles.
 
Securities       Investments in each of the Funds consist of short-term
Valuation        municipal securities maturing within one year from the date
                 of acquisition. Securities with a maturity of more than one
                 year in all cases have variable rate and demand features
                 qualifying them as short-term securities and are traded and
                 valued at amortized costs. On a dollar-weighted basis, the
                 average maturity of all such securities must be 90 days or
                 less (at February 28, 1995, the dollar-weighted average life
                 was 29 days for Reserves, 36 days for California Money
                 Market, 41 days for Massachusetts Money Market and 30 days
                 for New York Money Market).
 
Securities       Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis.
Transactions     Realized gains and losses from such transactions are
                 determined on the specific identification method. Securities
                 purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis
                 may be settled a month or more after the transaction date.
                 The securities so purchased are subject to market fluctuation
                 during this period. The Funds have instructed the custodian
                 to segregate assets in a separate account with a current
                 value at least equal
 
                                         33

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
                 to the amount of their purchase commitments. At February 28,
                 1995, there were no such purchase commitments in any of the
                 Funds.
 
Interest Income  Interest income is determined on the basis of interest
                 accrued, adjusted for premium amortized and discount earned.
 
Dividends and    Net investment income, adjusted for realized short-term gains
Distributions    and losses on investment transactions, is declared as a
to Shareholders  dividend to shareholders of record as of the close of each
                 business day and payment is made or reinvestment is credited
                 to shareholder accounts after month-end.
 
Federal Income   Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax
Taxes            purposes and intends to comply with the requirements of the
                 Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
                 companies by distributing all of its income to shareholders.
                 Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
                 Furthermore, each Fund intends to satisfy conditions which
                 will enable interest from municipal securities, which is
                 exempt from regular federal and designated state income taxes
                 for the California, Massachusetts and New York Money Market
                 Funds, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to
                 the shareholders of the Funds. All income dividends paid
                 during the year ended February 28, 1995, have been designated
                 Exempt Interest Dividends.
 
Insurance        The Funds have obtained commitments (each, a "Commitment")
Commitments      from Municipal Bond Investors Assurance Corporation ("MBIA")
                 with respect to certain designated bonds held by the Funds
                 for which credit support is furnished by banks ("Approved
                 Banks") approved by MBIA under its established credit
                 approval standards. Under the terms of a Commitment, if a
                 Fund were to determine that certain adverse circumstances
                 relating to the financial condition of an Approved Bank had
                 occurred, the Fund could cause MBIA to issue a "while-in-
                 fund" insurance policy covering the underlying bonds; after
                 time and subject to further terms and conditions, the Fund
                 could obtain from MBIA an "insured-to-maturity" insurance
                 policy as to the covered bonds. Each type of insurance policy
                 would insure payment of interest on the bonds and payment of
                 principal at maturity. Although such insurance would not
                 guarantee the market value of the bonds or the value of the
                 Funds' shares, the Funds believe that their ability to obtain
                 insurance for such bonds under such adverse circumstances
                 will enable the Funds to hold or dispose of such bonds at a
                 price at or near their par value.

Derivative       In October 1994, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
Financial        (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
Instruments      119 Disclosure about Derivative Financial Instruments and
                 Fair Value of Financial Instruments which prescribes
                 disclosure requirements for transactions in certain
                 derivative financial instruments including futures, forward,
                 swap, and option contracts, and other financial instruments
                 with similar characteristics. Although the Funds are
                 authorized to invest in such financial instruments, and may
                 do so in the future, they did not make any such investments
                 during the fiscal year ended February 28, 1995, other than
                 occasional purchases of high quality synthetic money market
                 securities.
 
                 2. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS
                 Purchases and sales (including maturities) of investment
                 securities during the year ended February 28, 1995, were as

                 At February 28, 1995, the cost of investments owned for
                 federal income tax purposes was the same as the cost for
                 financial reporting purposes for all Funds.
 
                 3. COMPOSITION OF NET ASSETS
                 At February 28, 1995, the Funds had common stock authorized
                 at $.01 par value per share. The composition of net assets as
                 well as the number of authorized shares were as follows:

                  Also, pursuant to a distribution agreement with the Funds,
                 Nuveen is the distributor or principal underwriter of Fund
                 shares and pays sales and promotion expenses in connection
                 with the offering of Fund shares. The Funds have adopted a
                 Distribution Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the Investment
                 Company Act of 1940 and a Service Plan pursuant to which the
                 Funds and Nuveen pay, in equal amounts, fees to securities
                 dealers and service organizations for services rendered in
                 the distribution of shares of the Funds or the servicing of
                 shareholder accounts. For Reserves, total service payments to
                 such securities dealers and organizations on an annualized
                 basis range from .1 of 1% to .2 of 1% of the average daily
                 net asset value of serviced accounts up to $10 million and .3
                 of 1% for such assets over $10 million. For the California,
                 Massachusetts and New York Money Market Funds, total service
                 payments to such securities dealers and organizations are .25
                 of 1% per year of the average daily net asset value of
                 serviced accounts.
                  The management fee referred to above is reduced by, or the
                 Adviser assumes certain expenses of each Fund, in an amount
                 necessary to prevent the total expenses of each Fund
                 (including the management fee and each Fund's share of
                 service payments under the Distribution and Service Plans,
                 but excluding interest, taxes, fees incurred in acquiring and
                 disposing of portfolio securities and, to the extent
                 permitted, extraordinary expenses) in any fiscal year from
                 exceeding .75 of 1% of the average daily net asset value of
                 Reserves, and .55 of 1% of the average daily net asset value
                 of the California, Massachusetts and New York Money Market
                 Funds.

                  The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall
                 investment advisory and administrative services, and general
                 office facilities. The Funds pay no compensation directly to
                 their directors who are affiliated with the Adviser or to
                 their officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their
                 services to the Funds from the Adviser.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
                 To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
                 Nuveen Tax-Free Reserves,
                 Nuveen California Tax-Free Fund, Inc.,
                 Nuveen Tax-Free Money Market Fund, Inc.:
 
                 We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of
                 NUVEEN TAX-FREE RESERVES (a Maryland corporation), NUVEEN
                 CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE FUND, INC. (comprised of Nuveen
                 California Tax-Free Money Market Fund) (a Maryland
                 corporation) and NUVEEN TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET FUND, INC.
                 (comprised of Nuveen Massachusetts and New York Tax-Free
                 Money Market Funds) (a Minnesota corporation), including the
                 portfolios of investments, as of February 28, 1995, and the
                 related statements of operations for the year then ended, the
                 statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years
                 in the period then ended and the financial highlights for the
                 periods indicated thereon. These financial statements and
                 financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds'
                 management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
                 these financial statements and financial highlights based on
                 our audits.
                  We conducted our audits in accordance with generally
                 accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we
                 plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
                 about whether the financial statements and financial
                 highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
                 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
                 amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our
                 procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
                 February 28, 1995, by correspondence with the custodian and
                 brokers. As to securities purchased but not received, we
                 requested confirmation from brokers and, when replies were
                 not received, we carried out other alternative auditing
                 procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
                 principles used and significant estimates made by management,
                 as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
                 presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
                 basis for our opinion.
                  In our opinion, the financial statements and financial
                 highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material
                 respects, the net assets of each of the respective funds
                 constituting Nuveen Tax-Free Reserves, Nuveen California Tax-
                 Free Fund, Inc. and Nuveen Tax-Free Money Market Fund, Inc.
                 as of February 28, 1995, the results of their operations for
                 the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each
                 of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
                 highlights for the periods indicated thereon in conformity
                 with generally accepted accounting principles.
