Your Sunnyvale house is worth significantly more than the median house price in NY State. Your post confirms that Prop 13 is very good for long-term homeowners.

What are you getting away with? Paying less for schools and common infrastructure than your neighbors who bought in the last decade. They're probably paying 3X more tax than you are, right?

It's still a 3/2 house. An equivalent house on, say Long Island, would have lower taxes.

An equivalent house in Utah would have even lower taxes. So?
