How do property taxes differ by town in Burlington County?

By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®

Property tax rates vary significantly across Burlington County towns. Moorestown, Medford, and Mount Laurel tend to have higher rates due to top-rated school districts and services. Towns like Pemberton and Bordentown often have lower rates. The effective rate can range from roughly 1.7 percent to over 2.5 percent depending on the municipality.

Why It Matters

Choosing where to buy in Burlington County involves trade-offs between tax rates and the schools, services, and amenities those taxes fund.
