This is just one of the reasons why I have a two year plan to move out of the state. TAXES! Which are surely going up AGAIN to fund our overly bloated school system. I just came back from CA and my cousin couldn't believe how much 1) we spend in the Warwick school system and 2) our property taxes! Our cities are similar in size and her house is valued twice as much as mine, but my taxes are literally twice hers?? Also, our school expenditures were millions higher. We could only shake our heads why? It's not like we churn out the smartest kids in the U.S.? In fact, we're way down at the bottom next to Mississippi! I wished I knew how badly RI was run before I bought here. What a mistake! It's sad because its beautiful here but not worth the cost to live here.
