Wow. Having grown up in NJ I'm familiar with taxes that are insane. Can't complain here. My taxes went down this year due to the value of the home dropping. I now owe more than it is worth, but even so it's not too bad. 1200 sf ranch on corner lot with inground pool - was worth $140K 3 years ago, now worth only $105K because of all the foreclosures and short sales in the area. When the bank is your competitor in the housing market it hurts your value. Taxes? 3 years ago we were just breaking the $1,000 mark. My tax bill that arrived last week - $845.
