I was lucky enough to be able to flee that sh&thole last year. I was born in IL and lived there all my life (I’m 62). There is no way, as a retired person, that I could continue to afford their high property taxes. I’m glad you were able to escape too!

As I’m sure you know, taxes are assessed by county in Illinois, so a lot depends on where you live in Illinois.
I live in a small town in Tazewell county and my taxes are slightly lower than when I bought my house in 1992, mainly due to the reduction when I turned 65.
