Some of the assessments are certainly way off, but many of them are not and the citizens are pissed because they are finally being assessed correctly after paying way under what they should have been for years. Even the poster who started this thread admits the assessment on his home is correct.
Home prices have risen everywhere the past few years due to historically low interest rates and increased demand. This will slow down with the raising of interest rates and inflation. Of course you have posters like stevieray who think home values should be based on what it cost to build the home back in 1960, but that isn't reality.
