If one lives in an unincorporated area, like here there are no city taxes. The county taxes a certain rate per dollar for school, library, firehouse, PVA, county farm extension department. We also have to pay separately for trash pickup, there are two companies to chose from. There is the water bill and a sewage bill to pay. I'm guessing that houses are worth more in NJ and perhaps some of those are city taxes as well as county taxes. Do they break down the assessments per dollar of tax?
