Yep, that's what I have heard.

When I hear about some of these other states (at conferences) and what people are paying for their mortgage and property taxes it is a midwest reality check.

My house is 4 BR, 2 BATH, 2000 sq feet and I pay somewhere around $2200-2400 (they just raised it) annually. I live in a nice neighborhood, low crime, with good schools. Not that I care. I have no kids. But for property values, or resell I suppose it matters.
