You mean transit? Because roads on a per passenger trip basis are incredibly cheap.
And the biggest complainers about property tax I see on social media seem to be inner-city residents who talk about how they subsidize suburbs and how the new communities are raising their taxes while ignoring how much transit is available, or their extremely high per-capita policing and fire department incidents or how the levy to pay for the East Village matches or exceeds all of the 14 new communities put together.
