The Fair Share Report

431 Everson Pl

Westfield, NJ 07090

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

≈ $1,041,130

Likely range $863,967 – $1,261,965, from 12 comparable Westfield sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

72.48%

The state's official measure of how far Westfield assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,041,130 home should be assessed near $754,611.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$684,000

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $70,611 below what the ratio math suggests (9.4%).

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

$2.291 per $100 assessed

$1.428 Schools · 62% $0.455 County · 20% $0.409 Town · 18%

Westfield 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 $2.396 per $100 all-in (+$0.105).

Step 5 · The bill

$15,677/yr
Public schools$9,768
Union County$3,112
Town of Westfield$2,798

Paying about right
