Tax Q&A

After 20 years in the Military moving from state to state and country to country and after working overseas as a civilian for the last 10 years were ready to settle down and retire. We are now looking for a state to retire to that has low property taxes, not too cold of a climate, reasonably price homes, low crime and a city no larger than 500,000 people. We do not have any kids in school so the school system is not important to us. We lived in Texas and the property taxes are high, also lived in Georgia where the property taxes are not to bad. If we had a $250,000 home in your area what would the property taxes be?

    Well, in Arizona property taxes are based on the City you live in rather than the state itself. In Mesa, AZ there are no property taxes. I think it may be the same in Sun City (retirement town). They find a way to opt out of most taxes.
