The Fair Share Report

360 Mitchell Ave

Linden, NJ 07036

The town corrects for market drift once a year — but only on average. This report measures whether this house drifted with the herd or away from it.

Step 1 · Market value

≈ $903,253

Likely range $762,502 – $941,379, from 12 comparable Linden sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,940 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

24.64%

The state's official measure of how far Linden assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $903,253 home should be assessed near $222,562.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$195,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $27,562 below what the ratio math suggests (12.4%).

Step 4 · The tax rate — same for every Linden home

$7.344 per $100 assessed

$3.319 Schools · 45% $1.310 County · 18% $2.715 Town · 37%

Linden also levies a Special Improvement District charge inside its district boundaries — the county roll doesn't say which homes are in it, but a bill's "IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT" line does. District homes pay $7.844 per $100 all-in (+$0.500).

Step 5 · The bill

$14,323/yr
Public schools$6,473
Union County$2,555
Town of Linden$5,295

Paying about right
