At about $17,333 a year, this home's property tax is in line with the roughly $17,000 typical for Merrick Union Free School District.

A sale does not automatically reset it, and exemptions such as STAR, Senior or Veteran move the number as well — a new owner's bill is often not the same as the seller's.
