Nassau County is No. 1 -- in property taxation, at least.
New analysis by the Tax Foundation, a nonpartisan group based in Washington, D.C., ranks Nassau tops nationwide in median home property taxes. The median, or midpoint, amount paid on a Nassau house was $8,478 -- a few dollars higher than the amount paid in Westchester County, which ranked No. 2.
All of the highest-paying counties listed in the foundation's analysis are in either New York or New Jersey suburbs. Suffolk County ranked 12th, with a median property tax of $7,010.
