Property taxes in Old Bridge
In New Jersey, a property-tax bill is the home’s assessed value multiplied by the municipality’s general tax rate, which is stated per $100 of assessed value. The local tax assessor sets the assessed value, and it is often not the same as market value because towns revalue at different times. The State publishes each town’s average ratio of assessed to true value every year, so compare actual bills — not rates alone — between towns.
