Lower cost of living in maryland?

[Anonymous]

Looking to stay in maryland. I am in MoCo and the taxes are so high on my house. We lived here to stay close to our jobs but now they’re remote and plan on staying remote.

Where is a lower cost of living, good schools, without a large church community? Budget would be 900-1.2 since I can pay cash from the equity on my house or get a small loan.

You obviously haven’t seen property taxes in NJ or Connecticut.

Have you not heard of Frederick County? Though that budget is actually high for the area. Not many million dollar homes in FredCo.

Property taxes are pretty low on MoCo. It is the income tax that is expensive.

Why not move to Delaware? Super cheap property taxes

Delmar is closest Delaware town to DC and Maryland right on border. This house under contract pays $989 a year property tax.

I can't imagine that nightmare of a commute just to save money on property taxes.

He said he works 100 percent from home. So I guess a once a year drive in for something not a big deal

DC has low property taxes. Or buy a cheaper home in MoCo or grieve your property taxes

But then you have to live in DC, 1 mill isn’t buying in any of the livable parts

This- Anne Arundel’s property taxes are much lower than Moco or HoCo. Severna Park is a good public school

Some of you just say anything.

Plenty of million dollar homes in Urbana, Linganore, Frederick city, Middletown, etc.

OP, Frederick county fits the bill.
