My in-laws bought homes in their 90s, and first thing both pointed out was how much less taxes and monthly expenses were going to be than at the northern home.
So maybe common sense, due diligence or education comes into play more than many give credit to new incoming TV residents.
Have to say I have never compared taxes yearly. Why bother it’s not a reason to give pause to stay, sell, or buy.

Maybe partly because the value seems higher since those costs are significantly lower for many who moved here from other areas.
The tax/bonds/fees and local intergovernmental infrastructure here is also highly complex - lots of moving parts and not so easy to comprehend.
