Property tax · $166/mo 0.94% of value a year — the ACS 2020-2024 median bill over the median home value for Broward County, FL
Insurance & upkeep · $227/mo insurance, maintenance and repairs together, from the BLS Consumer Expenditure Survey — the national figure for mortgaged homeowners, scaled to this market's home value. BLS publishes the three bundled and they cannot be split.
Both are priced off the same month's home value, so they rise with the market. Neither is a quote — a specific home's bill depends on its assessment, its age and its insurer.

What it’s like
The place. Lauderhill is a city in Broward County, and its residents are of middle age on the whole. Incomes here run well below the county's, and more households live below the poverty line than most would expect to find in a county this large. Most homes are lived in by their owners, and typical rents sit high next to typical home values.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in professional and business services, shops, and restaurants, hotels and entertainment. Among the largest workplaces in Lauderhill are UPS, Publix Super Markets and Life Care Center at Inverrary. The typical commute is a long one, and only a small group of residents work from home. Unemployment has risen a little over the past year, and a four-year degree is held by fewer adults than in many places.
Things to do. For a day out, Butterfly World is a short drive away and is described as a zoo. The Museum of Art Fort Lauderdale and Hugh Taylor Birch State Park, a protected area, are also a short drive away. Amerant Bank Arena, a stadium, is another short drive for those who enjoy live events. Winters are mild and summers are hot, with plenty of rain through the year.
