While eliminating the income tax is good, I am looking for a state that will eventually eliminate domicile property taxes. This means if you have a primary residence on a given maximum amount of land, say one acre, you are exempt from property taxes. Anything beyond that is not exempt.

The big, philosophical purpose of this is the restoration of the idea that people *own* their homes and their land, *not* that they just “lease” them from the government, for which they have to perpetually pay “rent” in the form of property taxes.

This would not be open to corporations or investors, or renters, and a property owner would have to be a 6 months and 1 day legal resident of that state and county and live on that property.

In addition, the home and land could be in a family trust, so it would be exempt from inheritance tax as well.

Exactly, Y! Kansas property taxes are INSANE.

"This means if you have a primary residence on a given maximum amount of land, say one acre, you are exempt from property taxes."

Might want to make that a primary residence up to 160 acres or so. Let 'em at least have a chance to produce enough to eat on some of the more sterile and cheap lots in the west.
