Reply to comment by FBU2004 in CT among the states with the highest tax burden by Kingdavid100

You are saying better pay some income tax then buy some paper towels? Very happy people’s in FL can afford private schools. Maybe cause not overtaxed

I’ve lived in Florida and CT. You still pay property taxes in Florida. I can guarantee you that private schools for one child cost way more than the difference in taxes. If you have more than two kids, you’ll pay way more in tuition than you will in taxes in CT.

And then there is the Florida insurance costs.

Not fun of FL,but if you say it comparable FL still looks more preferable in most cases(not for me, but for most). Don’t know why everybody here know only 2 states(CT and FL). VA, NC for example. Schools pretty comparable if you want compare only schools. All other much better

Not sure where you’re getting that NC has quality public schools. They’re ranked in the lower half of states. CT has some of the smallest class sizes in the nation, which is huge boon for teachers and students, and the most spending per student. Virginia seems fine based on a cursory search (though I wonder how areas like Arlington compare to places like Danville), but to claim NC is on par with us is bananas.
