[quote=Anonymous][quote]Because OP is planning to keep their place here, no doubt will be here quite a bit, will continue to rely on our services, but wants to avoid paying taxes. Then they'll complain about how things are here, without putting their money where their mouth is. Not to mention they're likely to cheat and be here more than six months a year.

When doing your math, OP, don't forget you lose the homestead exemption on your house, the opportunity for a 50 percent reduction in your property taxes through the senior citizen discount, the right to register your car here and get zoned parking, etc. etc. etc. Plus it's just a shitty thing to do to the city and it makes you a cheapo. If you have to change your residency to avoid city taxes you're not comfortable enough to retire.

Yes, we have a second home in a much more friendly tax state. No, we don't consider this.

So don't all these arguments also apply to the state where OP will spend MORE TIME than they do in DC?  Based on your analysis, that is the state that should get OP's tax dollars.[/quote]
