In Texas, property taxes are how we fund the county, the schools, and the municipal utility districts. If you are located inside an area that supplies water to you, you will either pay a city tax or a MUD tax. The MUD taxes in particular vary from neighborhood to neighborhood and when you move from one water district to another, the taxes could vary quite a bit. 
Typically as a rule of thumb, the older the neighborhood or utility district is, the less expensive the tax rate will be. Whenever you are looking at homes in brand new neighborhoods, those property taxes will be much higher than they are in older areas.
One thing you need to make sure you do annually is protest your property taxes. If you'd like help doing this, let us know. We have had great success protesting property taxes in the past, and can offer you free, no-obligation advice and help to protest your taxes.
