The Fair Share Report

518 E Ave

Fairfield, NJ 08332

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 2 · The Director's Ratio

83.33%

The state's official measure of how far Fairfield assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$105,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since.

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

$2.971 per $100 assessed

$1.447 Schools · 49% $1.029 County · 35% $0.495 Town · 17%

This home's own bill implies $2.738 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$2,889/yr
Public schools$1,407
Cumberland County$1,000
Town of Fairfield$481
Fairfield average$4,938
