Taxes!

3/4/2014
Saratoga is gorgeous. There is no doubt about it. We have lived here for twelve years but are finally getting out of New York!
I work around the country with individuals from almost every state and when they have all heard what our property and state income tax burdens are here in the Saratoga area....THEIR JAWS ALWAYS DROP!
Don't get sucked into the hype here about Saratoga having the lowest taxes in the state....Just look at the bottom line amount that is absconded every year from TAX PAYING, hard working people and you'll understand why many are fleeing the state.
It's too bad....other than January, February and March weather, Saratoga is a fantastic place to live. It's the governments, State, City and County that are killing the golden goose.
It really is sad.
