My property taxes went down considerably going from Texas to Washington (though I did not move to King County). I did buy a used EV up here though since gasoline is crazy expensive and the infrastructure is much better. Most other costs went down or stayed the same. Houston is expensive as hell.
You bought property in Seattle proper? Wow.
People in Houston usual just live 1 hour away from Houston, but that still counts as Houston except according to people in Houston.
I lived in Houston proper (outside the loop). I had shell casings on my street.
I hope the pricing at least reflected that.
