holy crap you people pay a lot. My motorcycle insurance for a
year is about $400. My plates are about $48. The property tax for my minisucle lot is about $2500. The house I am moving to is considerably more, and still in town, but the next town over. It belonged to family, and it was homesteaded (property taxes freeze at a certian age here) for $14000 - but that was for over 5 acres
in town....
Things are crazy
expensive out east. Welcome to the midwest, the home & HQ of John Deere.
