Humm..that really limits your search for "cheap taxes..best schools". How about Randolph? Decent schools and neighboring Dover has a NJT direct line into Manhattan? |

check out Wayne areas as well. New station with direct line as well. Pompton Plains, Pequannock, Wayne. Nice area and loaded with commuters. Just make sure you don't buy anything in a "flodd zone".

I'd also throw maybe Verona, Cedar Grove and Florham Park into the mix as well. The latter has SUPER low taxes because of Novartis.

that tells me they haven't been reassessed in awhile. You can't go by mil rate, you need to see it normalized since towns have their own reassessment schedule.
I actually just looked up a friend's house, and it's assessed at $48K. |
