The Fair Share Report

809 E Broad St

Westfield, NJ 07090

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

≈ $1,186,226

Likely range $969,705 – $1,475,940, from 12 comparable Westfield sales in the past 18 months, at this home's 2,219 sq ft.

Step 2 · The Director's Ratio

72.48%

The state's official measure of how far Westfield assessments sit below market value — republished every October, applied town-wide. A $1,186,226 home should be assessed near $859,777.

Step 3 · Assessed value

$688,500

Set at the last town-wide revaluation and mostly frozen since. That's $171,277 below what the ratio math suggests (19.9%).

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

$2.291 per $100 assessed

$1.428 Schools · 62% $0.455 County · 20% $0.409 Town · 18%

Westfield also levies a Special Improvement District charge inside its district boundaries — the county roll doesn't say which homes are in it, but a bill's "IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT" line does. District homes pay $2.396 per $100 all-in (+$0.105).

Step 5 · The bill

$15,780/yr
Public schools$9,832
Union County$3,133
Town of Westfield$2,816

Paying about right
