It is a bit high but not a lot of $

In NY we pay for water
Basic Service including 4500 gallons $24
each add'l 1K is $1.25

Many here have septic tanks so no sewer tax on those homes, but average property taxes on Long Island are $7,000-$15,000 if you have sewer it's included.

So with property taxes here <$2,000 it's a breath of fresh air.
