Most moves involving New Jersey see people leaving the state
Richard Donnelly

Your thoughts
What do you think about New Jerseys tax
issues and how they affect our older residents? Share your thoughts in a letter.
This is a problem New Jersey has experienced for some time now. High
taxes, especially, make it difficult for
seniors to remain in their homes after
their children have grown and moved
out.
In their place are younger residents 43.72 percent of people moving
into New Jersey last year were 44 years
old and younger, according to the United Van Lines survey. And these people
are moving into our state mainly for a
job (56 percent) or for their family (23
percent).
The irony, of course, is a main reason why people move into this state
for its excellent public schools is a
main reason why older people move
out because of the high property
taxes associated with those schools.
Its a catch 22 that New Jersey may
never truly solve. Good schools cost
money to run, and if theyre public
schools, a majority of that money is
going to come from the public.
The key is finding that balance between funding our schools properly
and not asking our residents to bear
too big a burden to do so. How can it be
fixed? By coming up with creative solutions to fund schools or, more appropriately, by finding ways to cut costs without cutting the quality of the product.
ly attached to it. My grandmothers irrevocable trust stipulates that Alice live in the
mortgage-free house until she dies or is incapable of remaining in the home. Dedicated caregivers visit Alice daily. These wonderful people take care of Alice's medical,
emotional and daily needs, permitting her
to live alone and independently.
Initially, Alice's financial support came
from her parents (now exhausted) modest
trust fund. Now she relies only on income
from Social Security and her father's pension, which amount to $17,150 annually.
My father, Alices brother, who is 70, has assisted her financially when he is able, since
her financial needs are larger than her income.
Over the years, property taxes have shot
up in New Jersey, and her property tax is
now $8,500 annually, which is half of her
income. New Jersey provides no property
tax exemption for elderly or handicapped
surviving on very limited incomes. Clearly, Alice could never pay her hefty tax bill
