What is the average property tax rate in Burlington County?

By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®

Burlington County's average effective property tax rate is approximately 2.0 percent, slightly below the New Jersey state average of about 2.2 percent. This means on a $300,000 home, you would pay roughly $6,000 annually in property taxes. Rates vary significantly by town, ranging from around 1.7 percent to over 2.5 percent.

Why It Matters

Knowing the average rate helps you benchmark whether a specific property's taxes are reasonable and compare costs across different towns.
