jstoesz, have you done a “property tax survey” on states with no income tax? I can’t right this moment but will try to in the next day or so. I think you will find that property owners in states with no income tax pay at least 2.75% of assessed value of their properties in taxes. And they don’t even have “Mello-Roos” where they get their own schools, fire and police substations, libraries and other improvements to show for it! Those property owners, are, essentially supporting the state and local services utilized by the renters!
