What urban service? Who's running the numbers on that racket? I pay more taxes on my property than many residences in closer proximity to the city. Half the time, I lock in the four wheel drive if going to work early in the winter.

We live in different ends of the country. Less population=less services required.

I bet the taxes and the properties are high compared to my location. I also be that there is very little accomplished with the taxes paid into the big machine.
