The Fair Share Report

608 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

≈ $550,193

Likely range $464,928 – $619,123, 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 $550,193 home should be assessed near $366,318.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$304,300

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $62,018 below what the ratio math suggests (16.9%).

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%
