seeking residential airpark in NJ

Consider leaving Jersey!

Sorry to be facetious but most of my flying time was out of NJ and I LOVE
NJ. Really.

But I feel like I fell into airport heaven down here in NC. Accidently
found an airpark where rent for residents is zero (still think that is
wrong). I built a hangar bigger than my house on 3300' of lit grass.
Private fuel, 12 fellow residents and 30+ hangar renters. We even have JetA
(!!)

So the stuff is out there it's just not in NJ (where all the work is ).

Good luck.

As far as I can tell, the only residential airpark in NJ is
Alexandria. But at Sun n' Fun in 2003, I was told that another was
being developed. So far, however, I haven't been able to find
anything on it. Does anyone know of other airparks in NJ?

I intend to eventually get there, but I think it only fair that you tell people about
the personal property taxes in NC. From what I've heard, they can be stiff on an
aircraft owner. True?

Don't know.

Rate - .8380
Maules assessed at 59,000 and 2003 payment was $494.42

Oh, taxes on real estate where I am are a small fraction of what I paid in
Jersey (W. Orange).

The thing that continues to be an eye-opener for me is that my monthly
housing 'nut' is the same now as it was for my first house in Jersey.
Interest rates play a big part but so do taxes. 2X the house with hangar.
But NYC is a looonnnng flight. It balances I guess.

I didn't lose anything in NYC.

I guess I didn't either - but I do miss the energy and culture that emanates
from the place. Not that much, but for us, it has been a trade-off. One
that we have been more than willing to make.
