I just moved to NJ 4 months ago, and I live in Camden County (not Camden City). Are you telling me that I don't pay sales tax on food, clothes, and even TP because I live in what may be considered an "enterprise" zone by extension of Camden? So, if I go to the shore, they do charge sales tax for those items? How is your sales tax lower?

I pay 3% on all non-food, non-clothing goods. This is lower than the state rate of 6%. Basically, if you live in certain urban areas of the state (as I do), you get an automatic 50% cut off of the state sales tax.

You do not pay sales tax on those items anywhere in NJ. The enterprize zone has only 3% sales tax on all other items.

The state of NJ has a 6% sales tax statewide, except in UEZs, Urban Enterprise Zones, (Like inner Camden City), where sales tax is 50% of the current state sales tax (right now 3%, after Corzine rapes the rest of us to 7%, it'll be 3.5%)
