Yeah. I know. I’m a Realtor in VA. They’re coming down here in “droves”. Whining about the taxes up north. Their voting habits are staying the same, by the way.
In the 40 years I’ve lived in Fairfax County VA, the population has doubled and it has switched from conservative Republican to leftwing Democrat government. No matter how much local taxes are increased there’s never enough money to meet the demands of the school system.
Take heart, albie. We moved from NJ to VA and took our conservative views with us.
Our real estate taxes were $8,000, and here’s some irony:
When the Dems were in charge we would get about 1200 dollars in a check as rebate. When Christie became Gov, he decided that the township should get the money as payment toward our local taxes. Well, guess what, taxes in the township ROSE. It was an insult.
I won’t mention here that at the same time jobs in NJ were non existent. Moved here four years ago, and love it. And we are still conservatives.
