GLOUCESTER CITY, NJ (CNBNewsnet)--NJ1015.com released a study that explains how much taxpayers in each city pay to fund their schools. For example, the stats show that Gloucester City residents are paying 10 percent in local taxes to support the school district's spending plan, which totals $65,756,263. In the nearby affluent community of Haddonfield, residents pay 75.3% of the $54,701,722 total spending.

Gloucester City school taxes are much lower than most communities because it is one of 31 "Abbott districts" in the state, which is now referred to as SDA Districts because the Schools Development Authority supervises them. Since the original ruling in 1985, New Jersey increased spending such that Abbott district students received 22% more per pupil (at $20,859) vs. non-Abbott districts (at $17,051) in 2011.^[3] 60% of New Jersey's education aid goes to the Abbotts.^[4

According to  DATA USA, the population in Gloucester City in 2019 was 11,248; the median age was 35; the poverty rate was 10.7 percent; the number of people employed was 5,272.
