About this listen

Proposition 13 has defined California’s property tax system for decades, limiting increases and setting strict rules for local taxes. A court ruling in 2017 weakened that standard by allowing some measures to pass with only a simple majority. More recently, Proposition 19, approved by voters in 2020, brought changes to inherited property taxes, creating new costs for families.

In this episode, Susan Shelley, columnist and editorial board member of the Southern California News Group, explains how these shifts are already playing out through new taxes, higher costs, and growing pressure on housing.
