2021 Combined Municipal and County Taxes Per $1,000 Assessed Value

Allegany County is not a good value when it comes to county and local property taxes, with a county $13.17 per $1k assessment and many towns assessing an additional $10-12 per $1k. You might be able to score property cheaply there, but you'll pay some of the highest taxes in the state there on it.

That would strip power from the executive branch and make it harder for Joe Biden and future presidents to defend their regulatory agendas against legal challenges.
