Step 1 · Market value
Likely range $824,860 – $940,300, from 12 comparable Bayonne sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).
Step 2 · The Director's Ratio
The state's official measure of how far Bayonne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $873,154 home should be assessed near $581,346.
Step 3 · Assessed value
Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $74,546 below what the ratio math suggests (12.8%).
Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Bayonne home
$1.077 Schools · 37% $0.507 County · 18% $1.296 Town · 45%
This home's own bill implies $2.831 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).
Step 5 · The bill
This home vs. every recent Bayonne sale · assessed ÷ market

Paying about right
This home's ratio lands inside Bayonne's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
