Alimony in Bayonne: how it is calculated
Alimony in Bayonne follows New Jersey law, not a local rule — the same statute applies whether the case is filed in Hudson County or anywhere else in the state. Here is what that formula produces, and where a Bayonne case is actually heard.
Where a Bayonne case goes
A divorce filed in Bayonne is heard by the New Jersey court for Hudson County. The judge applies the state statute below; the county sets the filing procedure, not the amount. Bayonne has about 74,532 residents (Census Bureau, 2024 estimate).

Does Bayonne have its own rule?
No. N.J.S.A. 2A:34-23 applies across New Jersey, so a case from Bayonne is decided by the same numbers as one filed anywhere else in the state. What changes locally is the courthouse, the clerk's procedure and how long the docket takes — not the amount.
What the statute says
N.J.S.A. 2A:34-23 — New Jersey alimony (2014 reform: open durational alimony only after 20 years).
