That’s because you pay those taxes in exchange for services from your municipality. And let’s admit it, it’s stupid that your payment is proportional to the value of your house. How is the city budget correlated with house values?

And they pay taxes in exchange for services as well. And it isn't stupid as if the cost was, for example, divided up equally between all residents a very large portion of them would be unable to live in cities due to the increase in cost.
