how much does auto insurance cost in NJ?
Can you guys let me know approximately how much auto insurance costs in New Jersey? Just a ballpark figure will do. I may be moving to Hudson County. Thanks.

I can tell you NJ has the highest auto insurance rates in the entire country. We also have the highest property taxes.

At least you can deduct property taxes on your tax form. Is NJ's tax higher than NY's? By a lot? |

NJ may have very high insurance rates, but it has among the cheapest gas in the country. Whether it balances out depends on how much you drive, but I don't drive, don't live in NJ, so don't know how many gallons it takes to save the difference on your policy.

It's going to cost you a limb. If your young, two limbs.  |
