OK
Here is the data for main cities across the US compiled for $75000 income..
This includes all taxes including property. (2003, data compiled by DC)
Now of course it doesn't mean you shouldn't go to CT just don't won property there.
. And as was mentioned earlier you don't get anything for nothing so I would have to imagine what WY is like: minimal state services? Unless they are using red ink at this time.
Does someone have a summary chart of state finances?
