A 30% increase for many homeowners, on top of a previous 20-30% increase = unable to afford the house you live in.

They’ve been doing this in Texas for years…bought my house in 2013 for 208k, latest assessed value is 525k, so they raise your property taxes by 10% until it matches the assessed value. My mortgage is almost 500.00 more now just due to the tax increase. It’s robbery
Protest and fight your taxes. Deadline for us is May 15th. You can do online. Just say house overvalued over market and give them evidence.
I have every year, it takes some off but nothing significant. Helps with the new homestead exemption, but it’s still bullshit as they cook the numbers between home improvements/dwelling/land to get their numbers as they change between the three every year and yet it always comes out to a 19% increase from the year before.
Just keep getting them to lower property value. They upped my last year 20k but I did do fixes on house.
This year they are trying to do 14k more but I have alot of stuff I still would need to fix.
Better then doing nothing.
