Pointe Coupee parish, 2500 sfl on a 3 ac lot, I pay only $300 a year. Farm land which is cheap on taxes, I pay a little over $1K a year.

School system here blows the big one big time. So if you have kids, that cost you another 5K per kid to send them to a good school.

I think it's around $9k. May get a small break due to homestead exemption. First full year in the house so not sure yet. No state income tax though. Also, insurance is is about 2k less here compared to when I was in LA. So it's a wash.

25% of assessed value X 2.31

200000 assessed value = 50000(25%) X 0.0231 = $1,155

Plus no state income tax

Plus private school education at a public school price.

Technically, but...

What make Williamson County Schools so good?

ACT scores

quote:

Brentwood High School scored the highest in the county with a 25.6 composite score, followed by Ravenwood High School with a 25.3 and Franklin High School with a 24.6.

I used to work in tax and appraisal software in Texas.

This is fun to do if you know rich folks in a certain county or EBR.

Here's Mark Cuban's property tax bill for 2015.

Public info searchable by owner is fun.

Ascension Parish Taxes

Livingston Parish Taxes

In EBR you can actually look at a digital map with owners names on the parcels. Just cruise over a fancy area and see the owners and what they pay in property taxes and estimated appraised value of homes.

Property taxes are typically low in the Southeast because of timber landowners.

I have a $260k house in Nashville and my yearly property tax is $1800. It's about 17% higher than a decade ago.
