Property Tax

One great benefit in moving out of California and its high property taxes (despite Prop. 13) and into New Mexico is the low property taxes.

I got my property tax bills about a couple of weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised.

The taxes for the "Barking Spider" acre, where the GOCO Beast Barn sits, is under $100. The taxes for the acre that the house and garage sits on is under $500. I just paid the lower amount and will pay the other early next week.

If I were to own the same property in California, the property taxes would be many times the New Mexico amount. Small wonder people are finding Commiefornia to be unaffordable and are making a mass exodus out.

Sometimes the grass is actually greener on the other side.
