This was my thought too. The only hands I could imagine that might raise that we're still ahead of are KJ & T9, but even then, I'm not expecting either hand to raise.

Yeah, I was either shipping it or folding, no in between. When I saw the flop, I felt really safe. But given his raise on such an incredibly dry board, I'm feeling like it's got to be a set or top 2 at worst.

If you bet $55 and get raised I think its a pretty standard fold even though you are at 1/3 invested. If you bet $20 0r $25 you keep in more garbage hands from opponents but play a game where you are going to get sucked out on more often. Personally I lean to the smaller sizing oop. Your opponents are never folding a pair preflop in 1/2 for $12 so good chance someone has 44 or 88 6 ways.
Yeah, I think you're right. The 1/2 size is standard with how the games play here, but that doesn't mean it's strategically better. His raise sizing is also much larger than most opponents would have made it there, not that it changes too much.

I'll admit, I have not studied hand charts, and that's something I'm planning on doing a lot of this year as part of my studies.

Yeah, I ended up folding here. I tried to goad him into showing, but he responded by saying that he thought I had nothing, and asked "AK?" So from that, it sounds like he was bluffing or overplaying a hand, which kinda sucks if we believe him. Considering he didn't show, I don't necessarily believe him.
