i am looking to possibly buy a property which is located in two towns. Listing says kids go to town A schools. Town B schools more desirable. and the neighborhood is more town A. taxes paid to both towns. Property has addresses for both towns. and there is a listing for both addresses.
Anyone familiar with this type of situation? I am thinking that if i register child with town B address for town b's schools, how can i be prevented from sending him there? Especially if i have correspondence, tax records, etc. from the town acknowledging the address.
i would call your township with your property tax bill in hand, to find out whats the protocol and whether your property taxes is being paid to either of those towns or split among the two towns. Also ask your previous owner before they sold it to you, if they had kids, they would know!
The city line between my house in South Plainfield and Edison ran through the corner of my backyard. My children went to the SP schools. I was told it was determined where my bedrooms were.
Several years later I read that there was another resident on the other side of town who had the city line between South Plainfield and Plainfield with a similar situation. He wanted to send his children to SP but was told that his bedrooms were in Plainfield and he had to send his children to Plainfield.
I know of a situation like that, and it's which town the front door faces.
But, I think you'd want to check with the town on which school that house is assigned to.
