Cook County: 1.75%
Special: 1% -- *special*? Oh it's *special* all right...
(If you think this is bad you should see how our property tax bills read.)
And only $10K SALT, if I remember correctly, is now deductible from fed income tax. Yikes, sorry @Dee*Jay
My youngest daughter was born on tax day. We always tell her there's no money left for gifts, lol.
