about $80 a year now and going down. 1.5 acre with an over 200 yr old home, well built.
amish here pay thru the nose due to so many out buildings. anything with a foundation is taxed. they have a small school up the road for their kids but still pay local school taxes. the kids graduated after 8th grade, but are masters at 3 languages, building, farming, you name it. the only thin they don't pay is workmens comp. other than that they pay everything like we do. they have exemptions as they have farms. still pay alot though.
my place has primary homestead exemption so i get a break that way.

I think taxes would vary too much across the country for one absolute answer but if you can get some kind of ag rating to the land for some crop production or cattle definitly will help you. We pay under 50 per year for near 60 acres under ag, neighbor pays 1000 for 40 acres recreation.

I just sold 37 acres in the same county I reside (Spartanburg, SC). It was around $350-400/year. Part of that cost was because there was an old house on it. I would have had to pay for it to be torn down, with permits, to reduce it to all agricultural land. I just sold it that way and the new owner had the house torn down.
I/we still own 13 acres in the neighboring county (Union, SC). We bought it 8 years ago and when we first got the tax bill, it was $16. I thought it might be a partial bill or a mistake, so I told my wife to pay it ASAP. 8 years later, it is still less than $20. No complaints from me on that! No mortgage and low taxes make for super low carrying costs.
