These are all communities in Milwaukee county with numbers taken from a local real estate site. These taxes are on top of a large income tax.

These are not luxurious homes.

"NOT LUXURIOUS" is an understatement! These have to be tiny starter homes or major fixer-uppers. A modest 1300 sq foot ranch presently sells in my neighborhood for $160,000-$170,000. Our property taxes last year were about $3200, and I expect them to rise to $3600 or higher this year, as we were hit with a $30,000 increase in our assessment for this tax year.

I pay 21,000.00 a year in property taxes in Franklin.
My kids go to private schools so no burden on the franklin school district. My monthly mortgage payment 1500.00
my monthly tax accrual 1750.00.
Saved all my life to buy the land and build a home of my dreams only to have franklin try to tax me out of it.
