A New York barn

Part of the reason your taxes are higher is that Saratoga Springs is a city, with one more layer of taxes. You get a lot of services. I have a buddy that lives in Saratoga Springs. Unfortunately those services raise your taxes!
But as has been said earlier, this thread has taken a major detour, from the way I started it!!!

Anyone else have any nice rural pictures of New York to show our friends from out of state that New York City isn't representative of our beautiful state?

...this thread has taken a major turn from where it started ...

No problem Dave... everything was fine until Richie started bragging and said "my taxes are lower than yours....Na, na, na, nah!..." /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif

I always find that breakfast tastes better after getting a few projects out of the way first...

Yeah, it's all Rich's fault /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif!

Hi Again Rich,

Here's one I took a couple months ago. Our house is bearmed or "in ground" so all the windows are on the south facing side. This is the view we see out of any window.

Take Care- Dave

John, I've got some waterfront property for sale....

I'm sure Kmart won't be paying taxes on the distribution center for several years. Most of the incentive packages offered to attract these things phase in the taxes over 7 yrs, yr1 -0-, yr 2 10%, etc. I won't hold my breath waiting for a tax break.

It matters a lot what town you're in. I'm one over from Von and my taxes are ~$2,000 (property and school) for 25 acres... but we have a well and septic system

"Richie started bragging"

Oh yeah??? I did not!!!! Nyaa, nyaa, nyaa!!

Mike asked me what my taxes were, and I told him. I was just trying to be helpful. It was John who started complaining about his high taxes in very urban Rensselaer County!!/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif Truth be told, John is really a city guy, that's why he pays high taxes!!/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif
I'm just a poor country boy from Long Island, and now I get picked on!!/w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif
