Watt is your age?? and are you 'grandfathered' in ???

like my wife's place now is still grandfathered in at FARM rates and so her prop tax is only 300/year taxes, plus trash/recycle of course..... same as me, with THREE acres of land for her, not that it's worth much, really....

Jesus...some of you guys are getting raped. My house here in Northern CA, my property tax is $8k/year. Thank god we have prop 13 that limits property tax increases; otherwise, we'd be paying up the kazoo.

When I purchased my house in 2003, property and school taxes were $2400.

Things stayed fairly stable ( as in modest increases ) until about 10 years ago. My school taxes and property taxes are almost $5K now.

The school board is allowed to increase taxes each and every year by up to 2.7% without any special meeting any criteria

Want to venture a guess how much they go up every year without fail.

$4,300/yr on 400k. All of that schooling money and I paid for it again from day one with private school, all the way through out of state at GT. I must be glutton for punishment. I wish there was a provision for a credit if you pay for your own schooling.

If you have kids in public schools, it's a tax to maintain and operate the schools. If you don't have kids in public schools, it's a tax to keep the juveniles penned up for most of the day. Either way, you benefit.

I pay Medicare tax but I don't own any elderly.

It's no longer a good value in my eyes. Building extra fancy new schools on my dime is just pissing me off. The current buildings are in good shape and if they need updating/repair, then fix them.

We just got a $60 MILLION middle school jammed up our ass. All this bullshit about how bad the building is and they need a NEW school.

Now that the new middle school is under construction, they're going to move some of the elementary students to the old middle school with minor repairs.

Screwed again. PA needs tax reform enacted to bring school boards in line. The have the pen and the open checkbook that comes directly out of my paycheck.

What ever happened to being confined to a budget? Spending within your means?

All I hear is "it's for the children" but the teachers and administrators NEVER want to get any added costs deducted from their paychecks.

Typical government. Their solution is always to raise taxes. You never hear of ANY government agency say they were able to save 10% of their budget on efficiency improvements. If these clowns were in a business, it would not last more than a few years.

Holy Shit..Even I living in S Fl where we get Fu@ked for everything don't get hosed like that but I've been in my property from 1999, if I were to buy my house today I would pay more than you even with homestead exemption. My appraised value is about 450.000 and this house is nothing to write home about. Where you beat me is in insurance that is where we get hosed more down here.

This is my plan. NH is crazy high on property taxes too. I'm paying almost $9500 a year on a 389K assessment. When we had our house listed a couple years back, we had it at $299K with a market appraisal at $305K.

Just passed a $25MM bond for a new jail, so that will be going up again.

Since it appears to bother you, you do realize that you can correct those things, right?

I'm at 2400 with a 200k house. This is pre homestead exemption. I should drop to 1800ish once my application is finalized
