We copied the following sentences from the article:

“The consequences of high and fast-growing property taxes are numerous. Taxes can discourage economic growth, distort investment decisions, and depress job creation. The rising burden from property taxes is worse for housing-rich but income-poor elderly homeowners. For example, elderly homeowners must move more often to reduce their property tax burden, which is an additional cost of owning a home for those who can least afford to move.”
