I’m in the 30% fed and top VT tax bracket. I moved from Florida pre pandemic. My extra cost to live here is $26k a year.

My wife is from here and the schools are great, so I eat it.

Ugggg. That's a tough one. I just came back from the kids vacation in Florida. Its crazy and over populated, but I still love it there. Warm, sunny, lots to do. Knowing that I am writing a $2300 check once a month for what is free or cheaper in Florida.

I love my wife and kids.

When you live in florida, you'll understand why those taxes in Vermont are valuable. Especially if you have kids and put them in a Florida school. The only places that have some decent schools are those that have high local taxes to make up for the lack of money coming from the state
