Thank you Karen:

Yes, the Real Estate taxes from Panther valley school district are killing us. When we built our home in 1995 they were $1500 now in 2011 they were $4300 just for the school. The Town and County are an additional $1700.

We have a feeling we will have a hard time selling- I see so many homes down the road from me sitting for 4 years.

All in all the School District is the problem here.

You are in Panther Valley and they are that high?! That is even worse! Unfortunately your district does not have a good reputation locally.

When I was speaking about folks reaping money from the tourists/cyclists, etc., I was assuming you were in Jim Thorpe borough and school district. They are the ones getting the lion's share of the tourist dollars.
