The Fair Share Report

516 Central Ave

Hammonton, NJ 08037

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

≈ $276,598

Likely range $226,223 – $363,420, from 12 comparable Hammonton sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

69.26%

The state's official measure of how far Hammonton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $276,598 home should be assessed near $191,572.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$189,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $1,972 below what the ratio math suggests (1.0%).

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

$2.817 per $100 assessed

$1.451 Schools · 52% $0.570 County · 20% $0.796 Town · 28%

This home's own bill implies $2.685 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

Public schools$2,622

Paying about right
