Show that on a county by county average. Because there's a whole lot of rural counties with low rates, but they aren't where the majority of airline pilots are going to live.
My tax rate is about 1.75% of my houses appraised value. But that's school, fire, county, local, every tax that is paid to the township/county/state other than income / sales taxes. When I owned a house in Corpus Christi it was north of 2.5% with MUD and ISD taxes and I didn't live in a fancy part of town. You can contact tax foundation for more detailed breakdown than what they provided in that article, but you're right, Texas is terrible nobody else move here (especially those senior to me) ! I just looked at my recent total property tax bill and it's effectively 1% when you include everything. The new(ish) laws and homestead increases helped knock them back down in recent years. . |

how does this chart notmalize for progressive income taxes? Or how someone with a high property tax relative to income might change this?
it’s rather impossible to make a comparison from california to other states in terms of property tax because of the distortion caused by prop 13. you have $5m homes with property taxes lower than $300k starter homes. |

That's true in a lot of states, not just CA.

Yea the CA number should have an asterisk because a relative newcomer to the state who came in with enough money to buy a nice SoCal house is likely paying double the number they are showing.

And some states you think would be cheaper, aren't.
Move from VA to NJ. Income tax, effective rate lower (not by much, but 5.6% vs 5.85%) Its nice when some states and municipalities don't raises taxes unabated as they do in the Northeast......but don't get to comfortable in Florida or Tennessee.........we humans we recreate what we flee......its in our nature no matter how irrational.

What year was this? As New Jersey is not below 6% unless your IGA'd <$75,000.

(See don't make here there) Effective tax rate is under 6. Don't confused top marginal with Effective. Married, no kids. Own house. Some disabled veteran exemptions. Just did my full incom, no writeoffs. Off the NJ.gov form, works to 5.5% Off form NJ-1040 Table B Married Couple For line 41 taxable income 150-500k, Tax owed is (Income * .0637 ) - 4042.5 Worst case, my whole W2 is taxable (it's not, I have deductions) $477,600 * .0637 = $30,423.12 $30,423.12 - $4042.5 = $26,380.62 $26,380.62 ÷ $477,600 = 5.52% |
Now for VA. Per the books, the forst $18k is tax free but they've been trying to impute disability as income, I'm currently fighting them on two years of this.
Tax = AGI -$18,000 * 5.85% ($477,600-$18,000)*.0585 = $26,886.60 that's 5.63% effective tax rate. |
