We have just under a half an acre here in NY with a 3 bedroom ranch home and our taxes are about $7200 a year (just one more reason I want OUT of NY!!) We also have sales tax and income tax and sleep tax and any other tax you can think of. One of the biggest irritations to me is I live in upstate NY and part of what I am taxed on goes to support NYC and their water distribution! And now they have increased the fee for me to register my vehicle so I can help support the MTA (metro-transit authority) for all of the people who commute by train. Like $35 round trip per day is not enough for them when the people are standing for a 2 hour train ride!! GRRRR!
