Article mentions high property taxes but property taxes are assed by county. I live in red central Illinois and my property tax is reasonable, indeed, they are about 07% higher than the were 31 years ago and I have made improvements to the property in those 31 years. I have no doubts that Chicongo and Cook County’s are outrageous.
Geographically speaking, Illinois is overwhelmingly red. Chicongo is populous enough however, to stink up the entire state.
“Article mentions high property taxes but property taxes are assed by county.”
I realize it is just a slight typo, but “assed” is actually the correct word to use, because each time we get our property tax bill, it feels like I’ve been kicked in exactly that spot!
