The Fair Share Report

8 E Ave

Clayton, NJ 08312

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

≈ $529,130

Likely range $481,316 – $592,635, from 12 comparable Clayton sales in the past 18 months (home size estimated from assessor data — range widened).

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

94.03%

The state's official measure of how far Clayton assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $529,130 home should be assessed near $497,541.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$530,600

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $33,059 above what the ratio math suggests (6.6%).

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

$2.568 per $100 assessed

$1.385 Schools · 54% $0.481 County · 19% $0.702 Town · 27%

This home's own bill implies $2.333 per $100 — below the general rate, usually a deduction on the bill (senior, veteran, disabled).

Step 5 · The bill

$12,380/yr
Public schools$6,677
Gloucester County$2,319
Town of Clayton$3,384
Clayton average$7,031

Paying about right

This home's ratio lands inside Clayton's normal band. The drift hasn't singled it out — no case for a tax appeal.
