Review of Montclair, New Jersey


Property Taxes
Star Rating - 1/6/2010
Property taxes are extremely high & rising fast in Montclair. The majority of the money goes to school taxes. Unfortunately, that premium does not seem to be reflected in the quality of city services (e.g. when it snows we are often the last town in the area to be plowed). We will see firtst-hand how the schools utilize the extra money when our daughter enters the system next year.
