Just checked my property tax bill and found out my neighbor pays $800 less a year for the same sized lot

I was looking through the county auditor website last night after a friend told me to double check my assessment. I live on W 117th and my neighbor two doors down has an almost identical house and lot. Same square footage, same age. But they pay $800 less every year. How is that even legal? I called the auditor's office this morning and they said it could be an old assessment from before values went up. Anyone else notice big differences in what neighbors pay around here?

Oh wow that's exactly what happened with me and my neighbor on Oak Street!

We had a guy on Maple Drive who took his fence down and put up a hedge instead. Caused all sorts of drama about property lines.

Heard hedges don't care about survey stakes like fences do.
