Apparently you are not aware of the 25% property tax increase to Sumpter County homeowners that was necessitated by the infrastructure needs created by all the newer homes referenced in your post. Also, you apparently are not aware that all homes in Sumter County, regardless of when they were purchased, were recently reassessed to reflect current market values for tax calculations.
