Impact analysis
Homeowners and local businesses are bleeding cash because of these sky-high rates, which eats into disposable income and stalls economic growth.
Honestly, nobody really wins when taxes are this high—unless the city finds a way to use the extra cash to dramatically upgrade public services.
Local homeowners and renters are getting crushed, since landlords just pass those insane property taxes right down through higher rent.
