Thanks.
I just looked at CDD-10 and only 3 or 4 communities were above $600 and these were premier communities, as expected based on how it is determined.

Looking at CDD12 the rates are higher with many in the $600 range and few in the $700. This is to be expected in the new areas as there is a higher ratio of open/green spaces and ponds to be maintained than in areas north of SR44, so higher costs and higher assessments.

In both cases the value for what is paid is pretty good. The pill that's hard to swallow is the Willdwood property taxes that the area south of SR44 is paying, about double their maintenance assessments and they get very little for their money. But this is a topic for a different thread.
