    How much does your property taxes run?

    I have a few houses in Philadelphia, nothing all that expensive, they're all worth between 75-100k, taxes run between $525. per year to about $800, but if you go a few miles north to the suburbs, they quadruple, or across the bridge to new jersey, they are several grand at least.
