Highest Property Tax Bills in Florida

Ranked by dollars actually paid rather than by rate. This list looks very different from the rate ranking: expensive coastal counties appear here on the strength of their home values alone, even where the percentage is unremarkable.

Where does yours land? Every county in America is somewhere on this scale, including the one you live in.
