What does Resident and Non-Resident (NR) mean?

Incorporated Jupiter residents pay Town of Jupiter taxes.  A non-resident does not pay taxes to the Town of Jupiter.  Having children in a Jupiter school or a mailing address that says Jupiter does not make you an incorporated Jupiter resident. It has no bearing on where you live but whether you pay taxes to the Town of Jupiter. For example, Jonathan's Landing, which is located in the middle of Jupiter, is considered an unincorporated community because they do not pay taxes to the Town of Jupiter. Other areas that are often confused as incorporated Jupiter residents are Jupiter Farms and Tequesta. Ultimately what determines your residential status is if you pay taxes to the Town of Jupiter. Another indicator if you pay taxes to the Town of Jupiter is if you have Jupiter Police or PBCSO patrol your neighborhood. PBCSO would be an indication that you are located in an unincorporated area of Jupiter/Palm Beach County. Unincorporated communities will be assessed a user fee of approximately 25% more than incorporated Jupiter residents.
