No, but Texas can really, really shove it up your bunghole by way of property taxes.
Rent.

My property taxes in Jersey was $15,000 a year. I bought the same size property in San Antonio and my property taxes are $5,000 a year.
You may have meant sales tax.
I've been saying the property taxes are going to be a miracle pulled out my butt this year. They've gone from what amounted to 2 weeks of our income to 2 months of income. Every year it's worse. Taxes go up and pay goes down. I tried protesting but it did no good. The recent not counted on new water heater and tires blew a huge hole in the year's property tax budget.

Texans “enjoy” an exemption for having a homestead and then if you are over 65 you receive another exemption and most of your tax rates are frozen. But the assessors have come up with another ploy - simply raise the assessed value of the property. In my case it has been almost $15,000 the last two years. There was sufficient money in the rainy day fund to reimburse property owners this past year but like true politicians, our Republican majority decided to spend the money elsewhere. A lot of it went to public schools. Just pure B.S.
