NJ Average property tax bill tops $9K for the 1st Time. Here’s how much it went up last year.

The average property tax bill in New Jersey has cracked $9,000 for the first time, rising $159 to $9,112 in 2020, according to new data from the state Department of Community Affairs.

The one-year increase of less than 2% is low by historical standards but represents another new high for a state with the unwelcome distinction of the highest property taxes in the nation.

Three counties — Bergen, Essex and Union — topped $12,000 for average homeowner property taxes and four others — Hunterdon, Morris, Passaic and Somerset — had average bills above $10,000.
