You get children of Wildwood getting educated, so that some day, if one of them ends up in a position of authority over you, you have a shot at an intelligent conversation with them instead of them just beating you over the head with a club.

You get town roads that get maintained, instead of left to erode, causing massive flooding to nearby properties the next time a storm blows through.

I mean it's a really weird question. What did residents on your block wherever you came from, get from the taxes paid by residents on the other side of town? If you lived near a town border, what did you get from that other town's taxes, that you didn't have to pay for? What did they get from the taxes you had to pay for?
