We are in Maricopa. Our property taxes did go down this year.
Mine went down this year, but there will be an election in Nov to try to raise the rates “for the children” again. It failed in a close vote in 2010, but the schools have rightly, I think, judged that in an off year, only those who want money for their kids will turn out to vote. If so, my taxes will go up next year...”for the children”.
I think $2500 on a 235K home is plenty, but I’m sure others will not. After all, if you believe what the schools are saying, this raise is all that stands between great schools and total collapse. The idea of looking for savings doesn’t seem to mean much to our schools here...
property taxes went down in florida too, course we do have an awesome governor
