Data refers to median real estate taxes and median value on "owner-occupied housing units," as well as the median household income of units that are owner-occupied.
Each statistic has a margin of error (confidence interval: 90%) associated with it. This can be significant for low population counties with a small sample size. All counties for which any statistic has a margin of error equal to at least 20% of the estimated value are excluded from the rankings.
