New Jersey = highest property taxes in the USA. Mine are currently 16k per year on a multi-family row house (two subway stops 10 minute ride to Manhattan) market value approx. 800-900k. The scary thing is that this tax level is "cheap" relative to market value as compared to many other suburban towns here in NJ. Of course the schools in my city are mostly crap, the suburbs generally have better ones.
In contrast, my mother and stepfather owned waterfront property with a deep water dock and a modest dwelling in the Low Country of South Carolina (near Hilton Head Island). They sold it for 800-900k a few years back. Property taxes were 2 or 3k a year.
