Once you decide to tie the knot, it’s time to start making a lot of decisions. One of them involves where you want to live. There are a lot of places in the U.S. where married couples can nestle in wedded bliss, but factors such as job market, safety, proximity to loved ones and finally home prices make a difference. Another important factor includes amount of money that you’ll pay in property taxes each year. It’s important because every year millions of property owners slip into default on their property taxes.

Some states simply carry higher property taxes than others, so they can easily hit anywhere between $2,000 and $4,000 annually. The states with the lowest tax rates include: Mississippi, Hawaii, Colorado, Idaho, Alabama, Louisiana, Delaware, and West Virginia.
