## Resource

Triangle homeowners are bracing for steep property tax hikes—some bills have doubled in a decade—as local governments scramble to fund booming infrastructure needs fueled by explosive population growth. With inflation soaring and state lawmakers proposing a voter referendum to cap tax increases, tensions rise as cities like Raleigh, Cary, and Chapel Hill push for more revenue to cover schools, policing, and public safety. Meanwhile, outdated loopholes and declining tax collections have left officials scrambling for new funding, even as home values climb and residents feel the squeeze.
