I was talking to someone here about being technically able to live comfortably on SS alone in KY after I pay off the house. They said, “what about the property tax”.
The property tax is so low here that it’s not a factor. It’s one of the reasons I moved here from Seattle. I hate the concept of renting my property from the government.

A couple of years ago my wife and I were casually checking out homes for sale in Sante Fe, NM. Just out of curiosity. One home in particular was appealing....about the same size as our current home in illannoy. The place was gorgeous and had a great pool to boot. Being paranoid about the real estate taxes I inquired as to how much and was told $500 something. I said no, not the annual electric bill but the property tax. RE agent repeated herself and showed me the bill. We pay eleven large in the illannoy SSR.
