"According to the Florida Department of Revenue, $117 billion in property tax value statewide was taken off the tax rolls in 2003 by Save Our Homes. In Broward, that figure was $17.6 billion; in Palm Beach County, $12.6 billion; and in Miami-Dade $18.7 billion. Nationally, Florida ranks in the middle of the pack among states in property taxes levied, according to a survey by the Tax Foundation. It also is among 19 states with property tax limits."
