Living in the city limits--sometimes a very arbitrary line determines this--throws city residents here in a type of unfair "double jeopardy", as far as taxes are concerned. Those in the county repeated say that only one set of taxes gives a resident all they require. With that line of reasoning, we in the city are unfairly paying double taxes. I know tuff luck.
Well, here is another example of tuff luck.
When you residentially hover near a city, enjoying or not enjoying the benefits of such, then you may become involved in sharing the responsibility for the upkeep of such. This is also known as responsibility of citizenship.
Common sense would dictate that if one wishes to avoid some of the duties of supporting a city center, than do not live next door to one.
