[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much are the property taxes where you're from in Boston? I would bet they are higher than MCPS. I have lived in the Chicago suburbs and Pittsburgh suburbs and MoCo taxes are much less. I moved from an $800,000 house in MoCo where the taxes were just under $8,000. An $800,000 in my Pittsburgh suburb would have taxes well over $25,000. So I don't think MoCo homeowners pay a ton in taxes and even a slight increase could make a difference.[/quote] So true. I'm from NY state, and the taxes there are staggeringly high. Around here, property taxes are such an afterthought- where I grew up, they could double your mortgage payment on a modest house and really affect your buying power. I'm also a teacher at a W School, and in my opinion, class size is the biggest factor in determining success of the class. I currently have four classes with 33-34 students. I can barely fit through the aisles. [/quote]
