Mickey,

That was my understanding, too. Since people often owned land in different
counties, a county would lose a lot of tax income if absentee landowners
were not taxed. If that were the case, most people would intentionally buy
land in counties they didn't reside in.....always trying to avoid those
taxes :-)
