"Effective" rates. It accounts for prop 13, so you aren't getting .7% if you're buying a brand new home.

My mom has a million dollar home in California and pays around 1.5k/year in property taxes because she's owned it since the 70s.

Whereas we paid about eight times that last year, and our house isn’t valued as high.

EDIT: and we’ve owned this house since 2008.
