Texas makes a big deal about not having income tax. What they don't tell you is how high the property taxes are.
I live in a state with income tax, and if I lived in this same house in Austin (as if I could afford such a house in Austin) my total, overall tax bill in Texas would probably be $20k per year higher than I pay now.
