Seriously. We just get the state tag from DMV, no city tags. Though I do have to display a community tag (HOA rules) in my rear window. - Drill Chef Stephen Jul 8, 09:11 1
- it's a decal that goes next to my state inspection. I also have a decal for my residence, my work HQ, and DOD. -- nm - loosilu Jul 8, 09:11
A little different here. It's essentially just an annual city tax on your car. $80 a year for a sticker that you display on the windshield. - pmb Jul 8, 09:10 1
- I pay a % tax on the car plus $20 for the sticker. -- nm - loosilu Jul 8, 09:15
yup, one drawback to parking being relatively scarce in high-density urban areas. -- nm - znufrii Jul 8, 09:08 9
- Ironically, NYC doesn't do this. -- nm - loosilu Jul 8, 09:08 8
  - and you lived in Park Slope, so you know how horrid it is to try and find a parking spot. -- nm - znufrii Jul 8, 09:09 7
    - I lived in Windsor Terrace, and I picked places that were on the border of the park or the PXway. More parking there. - loosilu Jul 8, 09:11
    - No way I'd own a car if I live in Park Slope. You can spend an hour looking for a spot and neverfind one. -- nm - Krusty Jul 8, 09:10 5
      - and then there's alternate-side-of-the-street parking regulations, which among other things, is enough to put me off of owning a car anywhere in NYC -- nm - znufrii Jul 8, 09:13 3
        
        see my post below. :) -- nm - loosilu Jul 8, 09:14 2
        
        yup. too much work for me. -- nm - znufrii Jul 8, 09:24 1
        
        it's no harder than feeding a cat. -- nm - loosilu Jul 8, 09:25
      - that's why you double park and hired a dude to move it. -- nm - loosilu Jul 8, 09:12
(which you get after you pay your yearly property tax on the car) -- nm - loosilu Jul 8, 09:07 2
- Cars have their own property tax? -- nm - con_carne Jul 8, 09:11 1
  - yep. -- nm - loosilu Jul 8, 09:14
