I’ve lived in NOVA since 1975. Our total cost of living per month is about $3050. Our mortgage is $1295 😊. Buy low, sell high.

Personal property tax in NoVA is the highest in the nation! It’s insane. My 14 yo car is depreciating in value, yet my property tax on it keeps increasing every year. Mind boggling!

Thanks for sharing. It's makes zero sense for an older car to have the taxes going up.

And it's still going up..

Average my monthly expense went up 20% comparing to before pandemic and salary stays the same. Houses price , interest rate goes up so much that I feel like my money is only worth half now

Property tax in VA is outrageous. I pay almost 11k for my old small cape cod home in NOVA. I also pay about $600 per year for car tax.

Fairfax county, loudoun county, Arlington county, city of falls church and city of Alexandria all expensive. Someone has to pay for those bloated massive local governments.

Born and raised in NoVa since 1973. The cost of living and traffic was oppressive. I moved to WV when I was 35 and don't regret it one bit.

Great video!

Very good video! Thank you for sharing.

@@LivinginNorthernVirginia Too bad, but I love that cement gray color! Just so you're prepared for later, even when your kid grows up and doesn't have daycare, there will be other things like private lessons or school costs, sports, clothing, etc. When they're my kid's age, it's college costs. Haha 😆

Technically Rhode island is #1 on the car tax but Virginia is #2

I see a lot of relators are making youtube channels. Times are bad I guess lol

The problem with Northern VA outside of the DC.. is that it's a one party area and the Democrats can get away with just about anything as their is no checks and balances !!! The local govt is bloated and the school systems waste too much money ...and when someone comes along and wants to reduce taxes - such as reducing the personal property taxes .. people in Northern VA didn't vote to let that happened !!! because so many people in this area are brainwashed and vote for the same type of people .. big spenders, high tax politicians. I moved out west to a red county and my taxes are a fraction of what Northern VA is. ... school are still good, roads are great - but its run by Repulicans , yet still have checks and balances on fiscal spending.

Great video!!
