A LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND CEO
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to present this semi-annual report for Dreyfus New Jersey Municipal Money Market Fund, Inc., covering the six-month period from December 1, 2009, through May 31, 2010.
Psychology historically has played an important role in how investors—especially individual investors—perceive the financial markets and make asset allocation decisions. Unlike the purely rational investor who, in an ideal world, would seek investments that potentially can deliver the best risk/return characteristics, the everyday investor typically has been influenced by emotions. Currently, investors’ emotions appear to be deeply divided, with a large number still seeking low risk investments (such as cash instruments), and others favoring higher risk investments (such as smaller-cap and emerging market stocks). Meanwhile, investment classes in the middle of the risk spectrum seemingly have been largely avoided.
It is important to note that investor sentiment often lags the economic cycle.That’s why we continue to stress the importance of a long-term, well balanced asset allocation strategy that can help cushion the volatility produced by the emotional swings of the financial markets. If you have not revisited your investment portfolio recently, we urge you to speak with your financial advisor about taking advantage of long-term market fundamentals rather than remaining susceptible to the effects of emotional reactions to short-term developments.
For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as general market perspectives, we provide a Discussion of Fund Performance on the pages that follow.
Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE
For the period of December 1, 2009, through May 31, 2010, as provided by Joseph Irace, Senior Portfolio Manager
Fund and Market Performance Overview
For the six-month period ended May 31, 2010, Dreyfus New Jersey Municipal Money Market Fund produced an annualized yield of 0.00%. Taking into account the effects of compounding, the fund produced an annualized effective yield of 0.00%.1
With the overnight federal funds rate remaining unchanged in a range between 0% and 0.25% during the reporting period,yields of tax-exempt money market instruments stayed at historically low levels.
The Fund’s Investment Approach
The fund’s objective is to seek as high a level of current income exempt from federal and New Jersey state income taxes as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The fund also seeks to maintain a stable $1.00 share price.To pursue its goal, the fund normally invests substantially all of its assets in short-term, high-quality municipal obligations that provide income exempt from federal and New Jersey state income taxes.The fund also may invest in high-quality, short-term structured notes, which are derivative instruments whose value is tied to underlying municipal obligations.
When pursuing the fund’s objective, we employ two primary strategies. First, we attempt to add value by constructing a portfolio of high-quality, tax-exempt money market municipal obligations that provide income exempt from federal and New Jersey state income taxes. Second, we actively manage the fund’s average maturity in anticipation of interest-rate trends and supply-and-demand changes in New Jersey’s short-term municipal marketplace.
For example, if we expect an increase in short-term supply, we may reduce the weighted average maturity of the fund, which should better position the fund to purchase new securities with higher yields, if higher yields materialize.Yields tend to rise when there is an increase in new-

issue supply competing for investor interest. New securities generally are issued with maturities in the one-year range and tend to lengthen the fund’s weighted average maturity if purchased. If we anticipate limited new-issue supply, we may extend the fund’s average maturity to maintain then-current yields for as long as we think practical. At other times, we try to maintain an average maturity that reflects our view of short-term interest-rate trends and future supply-and-demand considerations.
Money Market Yields Hovered Near Historical Lows
The reporting period began in the midst of an economic recovery. Manufacturing activity rebounded and housing prices appeared to bottom, helping to bolster confidence among consumers, businesses and investors.
Still, unemployment remained stubbornly high and the economic rebound has been milder than most previous recoveries. New developments during the reporting period, including turmoil in European debt markets, added to ongoing economic concerns. In light of these challenges, the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) retained its aggressively accommodative monetary policy.
In the national municipal securities market, the supply of variable-rate demand notes and tender option bonds stayed relatively low amid tighter lending restrictions and credit-rating downgrades. Instead, issuers turned to longer-term bonds for their financing needs, including taxable securities through the federally subsidized Build America Bonds program. Meanwhile, demand for tax-exempt money market instruments was robust, putting additional downward pressure on yields.
Finally, most states and municipalities have continued to struggle with lower-than-projected tax receipts and greater demand for services, further limiting the supply of instruments meeting our investment criteria. New Jersey faces a roughly $11 billion budget deficit for its upcoming fiscal year, which the governor has proposed to address, in part, through major cuts in state aid.
In-House Research Supported Credit Quality
The in-depth, independent research conducted by our credit analysts led us to focus on direct, high-quality municipal obligations during the
4
reporting period. We favored instruments backed by pledged tax appropriations or revenues from facilities providing essential services. We generally shied away from instruments issued by entities that depend heavily on state aid.
With interest rates near historical lows, municipal money market funds generally have maintained short weighted average maturities compared to historical norms.The fund was no exception, as we set its weighted average maturity in a range that was roughly in line with industry averages. In addition, we prepared the fund for new government regulations that took effect during the reporting period, including a reduction in the fund’s maximum weighted average maturity from 90 days to 60 days.
Safety and Liquidity Remain Paramount
The Fed has repeatedly indicated that it is likely to keep short-term interest rates near historical lows for an extended period.Therefore, we believe the prudent course continues to be an emphasis on preservation of capital and liquidity.
However, we expect the supply of newly issued tax-exempt money market instruments to trend higher in the months ahead, which could support higher yields.We also are mindful that, when the Fed eventually begins to raise the federal funds rate, a relatively defensive maturity-management strategy may enable the fund to capture higher yields more quickly as they become available.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:
Dreyfus New Jersey Municipal Money Market Fund, Inc. (the “fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a non-diversified open-end management investment company.The fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with as high a level of current income exempt from federal and New Jersey state income taxes as is consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNY Mellon”), serves as the fund’s investment adviser. MBSC Securities Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares, which are sold to the public without a sales charge.
It is the fund’s policy to maintain a continuous net asset value per share of $1.00; the fund has adopted certain investment, portfolio valuation and dividend and distribution policies to enable it to do so.There is no assurance, however, that the fund will be able to maintain a stable net asset value per share of $1.00.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) is the exclusive reference of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities.Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions.Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.
The Fund 21
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at amortized cost in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the Act, which has been determined by the Board of Directors to represent the fair value of the fund’s investments.
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e. the exit price). GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value.This hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
Additionally, GAAP provides guidance on determining whether the volume and activity in a market has decreased significantly and whether such a decrease in activity results in transactions that are not orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs and techniques used during annual and interim periods.
Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund’s investments relating to fair value measurements.These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Act. Generally, amortized cost
22
approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2010 in valuing the fund’s investments:
| |
| | Short-Term |
| Valuation Inputs | Investments ($)† |
| Level 1—Unadjusted Quoted Prices | — |
| Level 2—Other Significant Observable Inputs | 372,149,406 |
| Level 3—Significant Unobservable Inputs | — |
| Total | 372,149,406 |
| † See Statement of Investments for additional detailed categorizations. | |
(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted for accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Cost of investments represents amortized cost.
The fund has arrangements with the custodian and cash management bank whereby the fund may receive earnings credits when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset custody and cash management fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits as an expense offset in the Statement of Operations.
The fund follows an investment policy of investing primarily in municipal obligations of one state. Economic changes affecting the state and certain of its public bodies and municipalities may affect the ability of issuers within the state to pay interest on, or repay principal of, municipal obligations held by the fund.
(c) Dividends to shareholders: It is the policy of the fund to declare dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally
The Fund 23
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gains can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gains.
(d) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, which can distribute tax exempt dividends, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of income and net realized capital gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.
As of and during the period ended May 31, 2010, the fund did not have any liabilities for any uncertain tax positions.The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.
Each of the tax years in the three-year period ended November 30, 2009 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.
The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended November 30, 2009 was as follows: tax exempt income $1,406,555, ordinary income $10,937 and long-term capital gains $7,301. The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.
At May 31, 2010, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Statement of Investments).
NOTE 2—Management Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates:
(a) Pursuant to a management agreement with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .50% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly.
24
The Manager has undertaken to reimburse expenses in the event that current yields drop below a certain level. Such limitations may fluctuate daily, is voluntary and not contractual and may be terminated at any time. The reduction in expenses, pursuant to the undertaking, amounted to $328,447 during the period ended May 31, 2010.
(b) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, the fund reimburses the Distributor an amount not to exceed an annual rate of .25% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets for certain allocated expenses of providing personal services and/or maintaining shareholder accounts.The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. During the period ended May 31, 2010, the fund was charged $81,940 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.
The fund compensates Dreyfus Transfer, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, under a transfer agency agreement for providing personnel and facilities to perform transfer agency services for the fund. During the period ended May 31, 2010, the fund was charged $35,587 pursuant to the transfer agency agreement, which is included in Shareholder servicing costs in the Statement of Operations.
The fund compensates The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, under a cash management agreement for performing cash management services related to fund subscriptions and redemptions. During the period ended May 31, 2010, the fund was charged $3,733 pursuant to the cash management agreement, which is included in Shareholder servicing costs in the Statement of Operations.These fees were partially offset by earnings credits of $227.
The fund also compensates The Bank of New York Mellon under a custody agreement for providing custodial services for the fund. During the period ended May 31, 2010, the fund was charged $26,085 pursuant to the custody agreement.
The Fund 25
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)
During the period ended May 31, 2010, the fund was charged $2,742 for services performed by the Chief Compliance Officer.
The components of “Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates” in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: management fees $167,039, custodian fees $19,329, chief compliance officer fees $3,656 and transfer agency per account fees $17,700, which are offset against an expense reimbursement currently in effect in the amount of $43,245.
(c) Each Board member also serves as a Board member of other funds within the Dreyfus complex. Annual retainer fees and attendance fees are allocated to each fund based on net assets.
NOTE 3—Securities Transactions:
The fund is permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain related affiliated funds under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Board of Directors.The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by the fund from or to another fund or portfolio that are, or could be, considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment adviser (or affiliated investment adviser), common Director and/or common officers, complies with Rule 17a-7 of the Act. During the period ended May 31, 2010, the fund engaged in purchases and sales of securities pursuant to Rule 17a-7 of the Act amounting to $73,400,000 and $135,850,000, respectively.
