A surprising number of them also live in Florida.

I can see why that might happen. Retire or move to Florida while still owning property up here but no longer paying the property tax possibly. If you own significant property I’m sure it adds up quickly. Some people move to Florida to escape taxes.

I guess the same could be true with people up here too, maybe they own the whole building their address is listed at and fell behind on property taxes. I guess it could even be from eviction moratoriums during covid leading to no income to pay the taxes. In which case it would be the government’s fault why the government isn’t getting their money lol.
