Still uncool. Lyle what is the reality of US property taxes? Many earn quite low incomes so the notion of paying a fifth of your wages for having a home sounds harsh to say the least.
In the area where my sister lives, a suburb of Chicago, annual property tax bills of more than $30,000 are commonplace.
@Gandalf @greynotsoold I'm trying to tell Gandalf about those thing, but he is talking from another continent and does not have any experience in the USA and he goes by a lot of hearsay about the USA. But he never wants to come to check it out to see what I am saying to him is true.
Great point there gray not so old

How much are those properties? Are they located in the nicer parts of town? I am guessing they are not cheap properties. The average US income is not much above the amount you are stating. A progressive system is a better one, but still what is that really paying for?
If someone has a very large income then I am in favor of a progressive form of taxation on that income. I just don't like the idea of paying a tax just because you live in a house and frankly I think councils are often sub par and provide poor service. I was walking on ice for days in the UK which seldom happens here despite having far more snow and apparently the street had rats in the summer because rubbish collection had been reduced. If you are not going to provide services, then reduce the fee.
My issue with council tax in the UK too is that it is regressive and so the rich pay very little comparatively yet the poor can end up paying a fair bit. If your income is say 14,000 pounds a year then 1,500 pounds to live in a rented home is a fairly steep amount. To a person earning 140,000 pounds a year 2,300 pounds really is peanuts. Government in the UK spends billions subsidizing rents too which is again an absurd thing. Government has failed people in many ways. Council taxes themselves are a relatively new tax. My other issue is of course VAT which affects the poor more comparatively speaking unless the rich person has a vulgar caviar addiction.

It would have to be a very expensive home as the rates are not quite what you were suggesting. The average person probably lives in a home between 150-250,000 dollars.

dude if you ever saw a home in this country in the price range that you just said you would not want to live in that house or in the neighborhood. It would either be a ghetto or in the middle of nowhere with a 50-mile drive to the nearest supermarket or job

Facts are facts and I can know how much people pay in council tax or US property tax with a cursory Internet search or by reading a few articles. You also fail to consider that not everyone lives in a major city or even wants to. Good property can be found in more rural areas at a reasonable cost.
I am awaiting Grey to tell us of the property prices in the area where people pay more than half the average income on property tax. I am guessing they have very expensive property and income that can pay to maintain a lifestyle.

Not really. Lyle says there is plenty of good land at a reasonable cost in the states. If you want to pay a million dollars for 3 bedrooms in an overinflated modern city apartment, then that tends to skew prices somewhat. If the average price is say 300,000 then the ordinary person is typically paying less and unlikely to be living in a ghetto.
As you saw in the data above a 300,000 dollar home is not going to cost you 30,000 dollars a year. It would be around 6-7 thousand dollars region dependent of course, so just maybe rates are higher in Chicago. Have you lived in Chicago? How would you find out? The US is a big country and thus the Internet is useful. It shows that the US system is more progressive than the British one too, but still very expensive considering the infrastructure out there.
Do you think it is a good thing to pay so much or a bit of a rip off?

Some more, some less, but seemingly so unless the site is fake news and for far less in tax than Fats was saying. Less than half in fact.

I think he was saying that you can find a cheaper home than 200,000, but it would likely be in a slum and for taxes twice what the tax predictor states.
I think he was being hyperbolic. I think the houses for 8,000 dollars are probably best avoided, but there are likely nice neighborhoods with nice properties at a reasonable 200,000 or even less.

That does sound even more hyperbolic. Granted I have never been to Baltimore, but houses appear to be reasonably priced. You get a house, space above below and besides and a garden. And looking at some of the inside pictures some look really nicely upgraded. One looks shabby from the outside, but has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms for less than 300,000. A small family wouldn't need the space so could easily go cheaper. Looks splendid. Maybe the area sucks, I don't know, but in terms of value seems within reason.
As long as you avoid mega cities, America seems reasonable to me. Not so bad really.

You were wrong. There is property available at that price. Doesn't matter what it's like or if you would live there. You made an incorrect statement. It' all good, we all make mistakes, just own it.

Those higher priced Baltimore houses looked to be in reasonable areas probably unlike the ones for 8,000 dollars and seemed nice at 200,000 up or down.
You seemingly can buy a nice home there for 200 grand and the property tax is less than half what you stated meaning property tax is more but not that much more than the UK council tax which you called 'peanuts'.

Have you lived in Baltimore?
This person has and mentions a reasonable home for 75,000. Seems to be a town with various neighbohoods and 200,000 is probably a fairly reasonable one.
