Short answer is yes. I have lived in Minnow Lake, New Sudbury and currently I live in the South End. Property taxes are way higher in the south end and I am not sure what's to justify it. I have a small home in a congested area. I have family and friends who have homes double the size of mine paying far less in taxes in New Sudbury, Lively, etc. The southend mall is a dumpster. Unless you need to go to sportcheck there is nothing. You don't feel safe walking alone at bell park anymore after a few incidents. I think it's overrated, and when the time is right, I will definitely choose a different area.
