Real estate tax levied on real property.

Explanation: Federal income tax and Social Security/Medicare (FICA) are not deductible on Schedule A. State/local gasoline excise taxes generally are not deductible (only state/local general sales taxes may be deductible if you elect that in lieu of state income tax).
