Finally JC tax rate is approaching the state average. I know it hurts, but just think, most towns paid higher rates than us and didn’t have their schools subsidized. Now we’re joining the misery of living in this state.

The schools in Jersey city are horrible. At least other parts of Jersey get good schools in return for high taxes. This is unacceptable and it is like throwing money into a black hole.

Yep, town has almost zero ratables so the full tax burden is picked up by the homeowners.

How is that possible? I’d ask where but that’s personal.

Being a little dramatic, there’s a downtown with a bunch of small businesses but theres only one supermarket and no big box stores or a big mall.
