Where property assessments are least uniform in New Jersey

A town can have a perfectly ordinary tax rate and still assess similar homes unevenly. This ranking uses the residential coefficient of deviation published by the New Jersey Division of Taxation to show where assessment-to-sale ratios vary most within the same municipality.

This is an assessment-consistency ranking, not an appeal prediction. A higher coefficient means residential assessments vary more around the municipality's own norm. It does not prove that a specific property is over-assessed, does not replace market-value evidence, and does not change the checked Watchdog Score or ROBUST model.

How to read coefficient of deviation

It measures spread, not tax level

The coefficient of deviation measures how dispersed individual assessment-to-sale ratios are around a municipality's typical ratio. It answers whether assessments are being applied consistently, not whether the town's overall ratio is high or low.

Higher means less uniform

A larger coefficient means more variation among residential assessments relative to market evidence. This page ranks the state's published residential coefficient directly rather than substituting a calculated score.

One number is not a case

Municipal unevenness can make closer review worthwhile, but an individual appeal still needs property-specific evidence. Watchdog does not turn a town-level coefficient into a property-level win probability.

Where this data comes from and how old it is

Primary source: New Jersey Division of Taxation, Measures of Property Assessment Uniformity in New Jersey Taxing Districts, Coefficients of Deviation. The state table published in 2026 includes 2025 municipal observations. View the official state table.

This page loads /property/uniformity.json, the maintained Watchdog dataset already used by the property-level Assessment Uniformity tool. The public table ranks only the latest residential coefficient and shows the associated residential sales sample and source vintage. No second hand-edited statistics dataset is maintained, and the separate calculated uniformity score is intentionally not used here while its production provider state remains partial.
