Property taxes in Essex County NJ

Here's a view of property tax payments in Essex County NJ, from 2015 data downloaded from NJGIN.  Sorry there's no scale (yet).   The light green colors are the lowest payments while the reds are the highest.  This map was drawn with GRASS GIS.   I'll update the post with scales and other useful info at some point.

Areas paying 0 tax are colored according to parcel use code.  A lot of that is public space, with parkland in very pale graygreen, schools in purple, and religious properties in light blue.

A lot of the red areas are commercial, and the residential customers paying the really high rates are heavily in Milburn, with Essex Fells, Montclair, and Maplewood also paying dearly.
