A property tax rate close to the national average

Valley City's own cited effective property tax rate (~1.09%) runs only modestly above the national comparison figure (~1.02%) -- not a dramatic outlier in either direction.

North Dakota's genuinely favorable income tax structure

North Dakota's three-bracket income tax structure (0%, 1.95%, 2.50% top marginal) is cited by multiple sources as the lowest top marginal income tax rate of any US state that levies an income tax at all.

A real, disclosed cross-source statewide conflict

A source citing Valley City's own property-tax data separately described North Dakota's statewide median rate as approximately 1.30% -- a real, disclosed conflict with this project's own ND state record's 0.99% statewide anchor this record does not resolve.
