I believe that if you took the number of residents, and the number of actual "properties" in NYC, there would always be a HUGE discrepency between land-owners and non-land-owners. It's not unusual for one property to house 1000 residents. Why should that one land-owner be stuck with all the taxes for the other 999 residents?
