Default Re: Property Taxes In Villages?

I still find it hard to believe the way they assess homes in Florida. I wonder if all the counties do it the same way. This method results in identical properties being assessed grossly different values. Picture 2 identical houses on identical lots, no improvements after purchase, one has been lived in by one owner for the last 10 years, the second recently purchased. The resulting taxes on one at maybe $2500, and the second one at maybe $4500. That's no different than identical taxable income being taxed at different rates. Our government at work.
