"In California, he owns a Laguna Beach home valued at $4 million, or eight times as much. The annual property taxes on that home are just $2,264 -- a fraction of what he pays in Omaha"
I freely admit I find that amazing. I would pay half that in Florida on a $100,000 house.
By the way, if he is so concerned about the school system, I think instead of raising everyone's taxes, he should donate that house to the school system.
People need to understand that taxes are slavery.

I didn't think Florida had an income tax. California is 9.3% for > $38K.
Nebraska is 6.84 for > $26k.

This is a duplicate thread.
On the other thread, a poster said its because he has had the house for so long it has appreciated. Prop 13 limits how much the tax can be increased.
If he bought the house today, he would be paying 40,000 or so.
I am paraphrasing another poster but it made sense to me.

If his home in CA is not his primary residence he might find a revised bill in his mailbox
