Naperville has been Ryan’s home for the past 19 years. He’s lived in a few different houses, at first with just his wife and now with their two teenagers.
A gradual hike in his annual property tax bill is something Ryan has grown used to, he said this week, asking that his last name not be used. But when he opened this year’s bill, Ryan was taken aback.
For the 2023 tax year, Ryan owed $22,374.60. That’s $4,313,28 more than the year prior’s total of $18,061.32 — or a jump of nearly 24%.
Ryan wasn’t sure what drove the surge. Was it the schools? His property value?
