[QUOTE="Allen, post: 477155, member: 389"] I don't know my limit, but what I do know is that there are more services provided to those that live in the ritz'ier neighborhoods than I live that I don't want. Hence my tax bill is lower because I don't live there. There is absolutely nothing stopping one from moving to a lower property tax neighborhood. But living where services are greater than another place and bitching about the overall bill for those services is kinda like complaining about the price of a Big Mac. Note, I don't eat at McDonalds. Note 2, I live near Lincoln, ND. People have been flocking to Lincoln for quite a few years because of the generally lower property taxes, while electing people who think growth is the key to prosperity. Well, that shit is going to cause increased property taxes in the near future as more people equals more demand for services. Hence, their property taxes are going to skyrocket as they have had to install a new water supply line from Bismarck, AND they are going to install a sewer line back to Bismarck. You can't have new infrastructure for free. It's going to really piss off those who have lived here for years with relatively low property taxes. Hell, when I moved here in 2012, Lincoln struggled to staff a police department of about 3 officers. Nowadays, that same PD is supposed to be around 7(?) officers. I live rural and have to pay those expenses out of pocket if my septic field fails, or if I need a new well. Inflation is real, learn to prepare for it, or prepare to fail at life. [/QUOTE]
