Reply to comment by fred_fotch in [OC] State by State Housing Price Growth since 1975 by fred_fotch

Would be interesting to see change in property taxes between 1975 and today. Blue places tend to pay higher property taxes due to them wanting to give more to others in their communities while red places would rather pay nothing and ask to be left alone in peace, therefore generally pay less in property taxes. Property taxes affect prices as new owners need to adjust prices to compensate higher property taxes.

That would be tough because I don't think there is a good national property tax data set.

Well, one can manually gather the information from 1975, put it on a table then compare it to the now.
