From your link: "The tax on one house, which sold in 2015, is $21,400 a year. Four doors down, the tax is about $1,400 a year." What is the equivalent of that

From your link: "The tax on one house, which sold in 2015, is $21,400 a year. Four doors down, the tax is about $1,400 a year." What is the equivalent of that housing tax in other countries? In Australia, I pay council rates (local roads, garbage pickup, etc) which are about $2k/year, and there would be a further tax if the property was not my primary residence. But $20k is something else again!
