Question: #13: How is real estate property tax determined in Oregon?
It seems like each tax jurisdiction has it's own criteria, are remote properties taxed less? I would presume property tax's are a main revenue for schools and public services so is there a relationship in between school quality and public services and property tax's? I notice property tax's on river properties seem about twice what it would be otherwise.
