In some way, shape or form you are getting hit. I don’t care where you live.

Property taxes is one of those issues that I wish people would turn out for and fight back. The county I am in in NC took a huge rate increase a few years ago. Nobody seemed to care.

I did internet research on this tax issue abuut 8-9 years ago. There are some places where people really do pay very little taxes. The ones that I remember were Vermillion SD, Brownsville TX, New orleans LA, And one town in North Carolina(or was is Tennessee?) that I don’t remember. Obviously New orleans can be discounted now.

Some states don’t have sales tax. Some states don’t have income tax. Some states have almost no property tax. Then there are places where housing is so cheap it’s funny. But the towns where housing is so cheap there are no jobs to be found. Brownsville was one of those. I seem to remember you could get a house in Brownsville for under 5 grand. I think New orleans was similar. Obviously those homes in new orleans won’t be around anymore.
