The Fair Share Report

557 Ave E

Bayonne, NJ 07002

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

≈ $443,474

Likely range $417,128 – $496,132, from 12 comparable Bayonne sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

66.58%

The state's official measure of how far Bayonne assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $443,474 home should be assessed near $295,265.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$304,900

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $9,635 above what the ratio math suggests (3.3%).

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

$2.880 per $100 assessed

$1.077 Schools · 37% $0.507 County · 18% $1.296 Town · 45%
