Q: What were the overall market conditions during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008?

A: The fixed-income market experienced a severe downturn in liquidity late in the 12-month period ended September 30, 2008. As the value of subprime mortgages and related assets continued to fall, major financial institutions were forced to write down the value of their holdings of these securities. Institutional investors – traditionally a large source of liquidity in the municipal market – reduced their investments on the belief they would need resources to meet future obligations. This led to a severe lack of liquidity in the municipal bond market during the period.

As the crisis in the credit markets unfolded, investors sought the perceived safe haven of Treasury instruments, especially those with shorter maturities. This resulted in a steepening of the yield curve. Yields on municipal bonds with longer maturities rose, and the municipal bond yield curve steepened.


1



The Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) initiated several moves during the period. It began with repeated cuts in the fed funds target rate, and by the end of the period, it had cut that rate six times, from 4.75% to 2.00%.

Banks remained reluctant to lend to each other, so the Fed took additional steps. On December 12, 2007, the Fed implemented the Term Auction Facility to give commercial banks access to short-term loans. In addition, on March 11, 2008, it announced the establishment of the Term Securities Lending Facility. It also said it would accept certain mortgage-backed securities as collateral for these loans. By allowing banks to exchange relatively illiquid and troubled assets for Treasuries, it hoped to reduce the reluctance of banks to lend to each other. Finally, on March 16, 2008, it announced the creation of the Primary Dealer Credit Facility, whereby it would make short-term loans to large investment banks and would accept a broader range of collateral for these loans. Difficulties in the credit markets continued, however, prompting Congress to pass a broad-ranging financial rescue package to purchase troubled mortgage-related assets from banks.

Yields on municipals rose versus Treasuries. As of October 1, 2007, yields on 10-year 'AAA' rated municipals equaled 85% of the yield on 10-year Treasuries. By September 30, 2008, that figure had risen to 108%.

Issuance of new municipal bonds declined during the period, although refinancings increased in April through June of 2008 as a result of large numbers of conversions of auction rate securities. Between October 1, 2007, and September 30, 2008, issuance totaled more than $420 million, down 5.9% from the previous 12-month period.

The monolines experienced pressure on their credit ratings as a result of insurance they had written on mortgage-backed securities. Three of the largest bond insurers, Ambac, MBIA, and FGIC, were downgraded during the period.

Q: How did each Fund perform during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008?

Q. What were the most significant factors affecting performance?

A: The most significant factors affecting each fund's performance were as follows:

National Tax Free Fund

The National Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark during the 12-month period ended September 30, 2008. Detracting from performance were holdings of longer maturities and lower quality. Bonds with intermediate and long maturities underperformed those with maturities of five years or less. Bonds of lower quality underperformed those of higher quality. Also detracting from performance were holdings in the healthcare and tobacco sectors. Corporate-backed development bonds also detracted from performance. Contributing to performance were holdings of pre-refunded bonds.6

California Tax Free Fund

Municipal market conditions were challenging during the 12-month period. Detracting from performance in the period were the portfolio's holdings in both longer maturities and lower-rated credits. Performance was aided by the portfolio's holding of securities with maturities shorter than nine years and an allocation (the second largest sector allocation) in the pre-refunded sector.

Debt issued by the State of California is currently rated 'A1' by Moody's and 'A+' by Standard & Poor's. These ratings are based on the state's diverse and affluent economy. The state's per capita personal income is $39,300, compared with $36,600 for the United States, and California's economy is the biggest of all the 50 states. Its pension system has a better-than-average funding ratio of more than 88%, and in recent years the state has built up its reserves.

The outlook for California's ratings is stable (according to both S&P & Moody's). However, primarily due to the ailing U.S. housing market, the state's revenues have been below the forecast. As of February 2008, the median price of a single-family home was 26% lower than the year-ago median. Lower real estate values have cost the state an additional $600 million to compensate public schools for lower property taxes.

In May 2008, California revised its budget proposal for 2008–2009, including updated revenue projections and budget solutions. On September 23, 2008, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed the 2008–2009 budget 85 days late due to difficulties passing the proposed budget through the state legislature. The new budget addresses California's $15.2 billion budget shortfall with a combination of cuts and increased revenue. It also includes an increased rainy-day fund.

California's debt levels have remained moderate, but are still increasing. Debt per capita of $1,722 represents nearly a 100% increase during the past five years. As of June 2008, net tax-supported debt for California was about $67 billion. Looking ahead, while expecting to stay within manageable levels, California anticipates continued increases in debt measures.

Connecticut Tax Free Fund

With a steepening yield curve, the exposure of the Connecticut Tax Free Fund portfolio to longer-term bonds detracted from performance for the one-year period. Yields rose much more for longer-term bonds than for shorter-term bonds, resulting in lower total return for longer-term bonds.

Also detracting from performance were the portfolio's holdings in lower-rated bonds. Moreover, while some bond insurance companies were being


4



downgraded or put on "negative" outlook during the period, the Fund's large exposure to the insured bonds also hurt performance. The pre-refunded bond sector added to performance for the year.

Debt issued by the State of Connecticut is currently rated 'Aa3' by Moody's and 'AA' by Standard & Poor's. These healthy ratings are based on a solid state economy with revenue growth in personal income, sales tax, and corporate tax collections. In addition, Connecticut is the wealthiest state in the United States, with operating surpluses, and a rising budget reserve fund level, which reached a record high of nearly $1.4 billion at the end of fiscal year 2007.

The state ended fiscal year 2007 with a budget surplus of $1.1 billion. However, as of May 20, 2008, Connecticut revised its forecast for fiscal 2008, predicting a modest deficit of $52.9 million. Connecticut is feeling less impact from the struggling U.S. housing market than is much of the country. In 2007, Connecticut's construction jobs increased 2.1%, versus a national decrease of 1.0%, while the state's home prices continued to rise at a modest pace. Connecticut's employment gains of 1% in 2007 matched the national level of employment gains.

Connecticut's debt ratios are high. With net tax-supported debt equaling $3,698 per capita, compared with a national median of $889 per capita, the state's debt ratio ranks second in the nation, according to Moody's 2008 State Debt Medians Report. However, taking into account the state's high income levels, its debt ratios are manageable.

The state has made a commitment to fully fund its annual required Teachers' Retirement System contribution. As of June 30, 2006, the State Employees' Retirement Fund (SRF) reported an unfunded pension obligation of 53%, or $7.9 billion.

Hawaii Tax Free Fund

Financial market upheaval during the period resulted in a materially steeper yield curve in the municipal market place during the one-year period. Investors sought safe haven in the very front end of the yield curve, where maturities are 10 years or less. The Hawaii Tax Free Fund's yield curve positioning played a critical role in shaping the returns for the year, as longer-dated maturities negatively affected performance. Historically these bonds have provided higher tax-exempt income and higher potential returns. However, it did not work out that way during this one-year period.

The Fund did benefit from its holding of securities shorter than 10 years. The marketplace also rewarded the Fund for its second largest sector allocation, the pre-refunded sector.

Debt issued by the State of Hawaii is currently rated 'Aa2' by Moody's. These strong ratings are based on the state's track record of fiscal conservatism, sound


5



financial position, and slowing, yet positive, employment trends.

Unaudited results for fiscal year 2008 indicate that total tax revenues increased by 1.2%. Hawaii's economy is slowing. In August 2008, the state reduced its forecasts for tax revenue growth, from 4% to 1%, for fiscal year 2009 due to slower growth of employment and personal income. Even so, the state's July 2008 unemployment rate of 3.9% was among the lowest in the nation. While Hawaii still has very strong reserves, unaudited results for fiscal 2008 report a $162.2 million decline in the state's ending general fund balance, to $331 million.

With debt per capita of $3,663, or 9.9% of personal income, Hawaii ranks third highest in the nation, according to Moody's 2008 State Debt Medians Report. However, Hawaii issues all debt for its schools, which in most other states is provided for on the local level. Hawaii's retirement system funded ratio was below average, at 67.5%, at the end of fiscal year 2007.

Missouri Tax Free Fund

Municipal market conditions were challenging during the one-year period, as financial market turmoil resulted in higher yields for both long-maturity bonds and lower-quality credits. For the period, the Missouri Tax Free Fund holdings in both longer maturities and lower-rated credits negatively affected performance. The Fund did benefit from its holding of securities with maturities of 10 years and less. The marketplace also rewarded the Fund for its sector allocation to the pre-refunded sector.

General obligation (GO) bonds issued by the State of Missouri are currently rated 'AAA' by Standard and Poor's. These strong ratings are based on Missouri's strong, diverse economy, good financial management, strong reserves, and low debt burden. Located in the center of the United States, Missouri's geographic position is valuable for trade and manufacturing. Missouri is the 15th most populous state in the nation, with an estimated 2008 population of more than 5.8 million people. The state's 2007 per capita effective buying income was 94% of the national level. Unemployment in Missouri for 2007 was 5.0%, versus a national average of 4.6%.

Missouri's actual expenditures for fiscal 2008 were under budget, enabling the state to increase its already strong reserves by nearly $166 million. Fiscal 2008 net general revenues were up 3.7% over fiscal 2007. Personal income taxes increased 5.9%, corporate income taxes increased 0.2%, and net sales taxes decreased 1.2%.

The state has two major retirement systems to cover state employees. At the end of fiscal year 2007, the larger of the two plans was funded at 84%, and the smaller was fully funded. Missouri has a low per capita debt level of $613.


6



New Jersey Tax Free Fund

A combination of longer-maturity bonds and widening credit spreads were among the factors detracting from performance for the one-year period. While the Fund did shorten its average maturity by two years during the period, bonds maturing 13 years and longer performed much worse than shorter bonds and detracted from overall performance. While some bond insurance companies were being downgraded or put on "negative" outlook during the period, the Fund's large exposure to insured bonds also had a negative impact upon performance. The Fund benefited from its allocation to pre-refunded bonds, which posted positive returns during the period.

General obligation (GO) debt issued by the State of New Jersey is currently rated 'Aa3' by Moody's and 'AA' by Standard and Poor's. These ratings are based on New Jersey's varied economy, high wealth and income levels, and improving general fund reserves, which reached 6.5% in fiscal 2007. They also reflect an increasing debt burden and a large unfunded pension liability.

New Jersey's job creation rate lags growth nationally. The state's July 2008 unemployment rate was 5.4%, versus a national rate of 5.7%. The state has seen a decline in employment in the financial, manufacturing, and construction sectors. The struggling housing market has caused a sharp decline in housing permits, from 34,000 in 2006 to 25,000 in 2007.

In terms of personal income, New Jersey ranks second among the 50 states, with per capita personal income at $49,194 in 2007. The funded ratio for state pensions is low, at 73.2%. As of June 2008, the state's net tax-supported debt was the third highest in the country, at about $29.7 billion.

New York Tax Free Fund

For the 12 month period, the New York Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark. The municipal yield curve steepened dramatically, widening the difference between yields of short-term and long-term bonds. Consequently, the portfolio's holdings in longer-maturity bonds was a negative factor. Typically, longer maturity bonds provide more attractive tax exempt income and total return potential than shorter bonds. However, they do not perform as well when rates rise significantly as they did during this time period.

The portfolio's exposure to lower-rated bonds detracted from performance. Pre-refunded bonds added to performance for the year.

Debt issued by the State of New York is currently rated 'Aa3' by Moody's and 'AA' by Standard & Poor's. These ratings are based on the state's wealthy, mature economy and its highly educated global workforce, as well as its history of conservative budgeting and active


7



expense management, improved finances, and growing budget reserves. Slowing of the national economy has hurt New York's economy, especially due to the state's dependence on the financial and insurance sectors.

For fiscal year 2008 (ended March 31, 2008), New York's revenues were below budget by $4.1 billion. Expenses for 2008 were $4.6 billion under budget, and the total General Fund reserves fell by $291 million, to $2.75 billion, from fiscal year 2007 to fiscal year 2008.

The pension system in New York is well funded when compared with other states. Outstanding tax-supported debt is currently more than $53 billion. New York ranks fifth among the 50 states, according to Moody's 2008 State Debt Medians Report, in terms of both net tax-supported debt per capita and debt burden as a percentage of personal income, which currently is 6.3%.

Intermediate Tax Free Fund

The Intermediate Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) Municipal Bond Index: 7 Year (6–8), during the 12-month period ended September 30, 2008. Longer maturities underperformed shorter maturities, and low quality underperformed high quality. The Fund's holdings of longer bonds and those of lower quality, therefore, detracted from performance. As the period progressed, the Fund increased its weightings of lower-quality bonds and longer bonds, as those were repriced lower, and increased the overall yield as a result. Contributing to performance were the Fund's holdings of pre-refunded bonds, which are of high quality, and holdings of insured bonds.

Georgia Tax Free Trust

With a steepening yield curve, the Georgia Tax Free Trust's exposure to longer-term bonds detracted from performance for the one-year period. Yields rose much more for longer-term bonds than for shorter-term bonds, resulting in lower total return for longer-term bonds.

Also detracting from performance were the Fund's holdings in lower-rated bonds. The weaker performance of lower-quality bonds was due to decreased demand and lack of liquidity. The portfolio's holdings in pre-refunded bonds contributed to performance for the year.

Debt issued by the State of Georgia is currently rated 'Aaa' by Moody's and 'AAA' by Standard & Poor's. These strong ratings are based on solid revenue growth and reserve levels, consistent employment increases, conservative financial practices, and well-funded employee pensions. While employment growth is still growing faster than the rest of the country, Georgia has experienced a slowdown during 2008, primarily due to weakness in the housing market. However, the diversity of Georgia's economy has helped


8



to offset losses brought on by housing and related sectors.

Georgia's audited tax revenues for fiscal 2007 grew 8.1%, versus fiscal 2006 and the state increased its revenue shortfall reserve to $1.5 billion, or 4.8% of revenues. As of May 2008, the state's year-to-date revenues were $15.83 billion, versus $15.85 billion for the same period of 2007.

While still moderate when compared with the median level for the 50 states as determined in Moody's 2007 State Debt Medians Report, Georgia's level of debt burden is increasing. Georgia has about $8.9 billion in outstanding debt, including $589.9 million in guaranteed debt.

Pension funded status in Georgia ranks among the best in the United States. The state's two largest pension systems are funded at 97% for the Employees' Retirement System of Georgia and at 98% for the Teacher's Retirement System of Georgia as of June 30, 2005.

High Yield Municipal Bond Fund

The High Yield Municipal Bond Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) High Yield Municipal Bond Index, during the 12-month period. Performance in the high yield market was hurt by a flight to quality during the period. Also detracting from performance were portfolio holdings in lower-quality bonds and in longer maturities, which tend to pay higher yields, as well as holdings in the airline, healthcare, and tobacco sectors.

Pennsylvania Tax Free Trust

With a steepening yield curve, the Pennsylvania Tax Free Fund's exposure to longer-term bonds and lower-quality bonds detracted from performance for the one-year period. Yields rose much more for longer-term bonds than for shorter-term bonds, resulting in lower total return for longer-term bonds. Historically, longer maturities and lower quality bonds have led to higher tax exempt income and stronger total returns. However, that did not happen during the 12-month period.

In addition, credit spreads continued to widen, which caused the Fund's holdings in lower-rated bonds to detract from performance. The weaker performance of lower-quality bonds was due to decreased demand and lack of liquidity. Moreover, while some bond insurance companies were being downgraded or put on "negative" outlook during the period, the Fund's large exposure to insured bonds also hurt performance. Pre-refunded bonds was one of the few sectors that outperformed the benchmark for the year, and added to performance.

Debt issued by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is currently rated 'Aa2' by Moody's and 'AA' by Standard & Poor's. These ratings are based on the


9



commonwealth's varied economic base, modestly growing wealth levels, a significant reduction of available reserves, responsive financial management team, and a favorable debt profile relative to other states. While there has been no significant reduction in employment, Pennsylvania's economy has undergone a slowdown in line with the nation's economy. The commonwealth's aggregate nonfarm employment levels rose 0.7% in 2007, versus national growth of 1.1%. At the close of 2007, Pennsylvania's unemployment rate of 4.7% was below the national rate of 5.0%.

On a GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) basis, Pennsylvania's total 2007 general fund revenues of $43.5 billion, including federal appropriations, were greater than expenditures of $43.1 billion. As of April 2008, year-to-date revenues were ahead of estimates by $436.6 million, personal income tax collections were 3% higher than estimates, and sales tax revenues were on par with estimates. The commonwealth estimates a 2008 ending balance for an unappropriated general fund of $400 million, or 1.45% of tax revenues.

Pennsylvania's State Employee's Retirement Fund and the Public School Employees Retirement Fund are well funded, with funded ratios of 92.9% and 81.2%, respectively. The commonwealth's ratio of debt to personal income is 2.4%, equal to the Moody's 2008 State Debt Medians Report. Pennsylvania ranks 27th among the states in terms of net tax-supported debt per capita with $870, versus the national median of $889.

Each Fund's portfolio is actively managed and, therefore, its holdings and the weightings of a particular issuer or particular sector as a percentage of portfolio assets are subject to change.

Note: Class A shares purchased subject to a front-end sales charge have no contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). However, certain purchases of Class A shares made without a front-end sales charge may be subject to a CDSC of 1% if the shares are redeemed before the first day of the month in which the one-year anniversary of the purchase falls. Please see the prospectus for more information on redemptions that may be subject to a CDSC.

1  The Lipper Funds Average: Lipper, Inc. is a nationally recognized organization that reports on mutual fund total return performance and calculates fund rankings. Peer averages are based on universes of funds with similar investment objectives. Peer group averages include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude sales charges.

2  The Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) Municipal Bond Index is a broad measure of the municipal bond market with maturities of at least one year. To be included in this index, bonds must have a minimum credit rating of at least Baa, an outstanding par value of at least $3 million, and be issued as part of a transaction of at least $50 million. Includes zero coupon bonds subject to the alternative minimum tax.

3  The Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) Municipal Bond Index: 7 Yr (6-8) is an unmanaged total return performance benchmark for the investment-grade, geographically unrestricted seven-year tax-exempt bond market, consisting of municipal bonds with maturities of 6-8 years.

4  The Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) 85% High Yield/15% Municipal Bond Index is a total return benchmark designed for municipal portfolios, which contain both investment and non-investment-grade tax-exempt bonds. The index contains an equal weighting of the Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) Municipal Bond Index and the Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) Municipal Non-Investment Grade Index.

5  The Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) High Yield Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged index that includes municipal bonds having a maximum quality rating of Ba1, or non-rated, original issue size of $20 million or larger, and maturities of at least one year.

6  Pre-refunded bonds are older, tax-free bonds that typically pay coupons higher than current market rates and that have been refinanced or "prepaid" by the proceeds of a second bond issue. The proceeds of this second issuance are used to "call" or pay off the original issue at its first call date. Until that time, the monies are held in escrow and are usually invested in U.S. Treasuries. As a result, pre-refunded bonds are generally deemed to have virtually no default risk. Typically, when a bond becomes pre-refunded it appreciates in value because of its higher credit quality and improved marketability.

Expense Example

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments (these charges vary among the share classes); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees (these charges vary among the share classes; also, certain Funds do not yet have effective a Rule 12b-1 plan under which distribution and service fees are paid); and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (April 1, 2008 through September 30, 2008).

Actual Expenses

For each class of each Fund, the first line of the applicable table on the following pages provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading titled "Expenses Paid During the Period 4/1/08 – 9/30/08" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

For each class of each Fund, the second line of the applicable table on the following pages provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in each Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

1. ORGANIZATION

Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (the "Company") and Lord Abbett Municipal Income Trust (the "Trust") are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as open-end management investment companies. The Company was organized as a Maryland corporation on December 27, 1983. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on September 11, 1991 and was reorganized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 22, 2002.

The Company consists of the following seven portfolios and their respective classes (separately, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"):

Funds   Classes Offered  
Lord Abbett National Tax-Free Income Fund ("National")   A,B,C,F,I and P  
Lord Abbett California Tax-Free Income Fund ("California")   A,C,F and P  
Lord Abbett Connecticut Tax-Free Income Fund ("Connecticut")   A,F and P  
Lord Abbett Hawaii Tax-Free Income Fund ("Hawaii")   A,F and P  
Lord Abbett Missouri Tax-Free Income Fund ("Missouri")   A,F and P  
Lord Abbett New Jersey Tax-Free Income Fund ("New Jersey")   A,F and P  
Lord Abbett New York Tax-Free Income Fund ("New York")   A,C,F and P  

 

The Trust consists of the following four portfolios and their respective classes (separately, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"):

Funds   Classes Offered  
Lord Abbett Intermediate Tax-Free Fund ("Intermediate")   A,B,C,F and P  
Georgia Series ("Georgia")   A,F and P  
Lord Abbett High Yield Municipal Bond Fund ("High Yield")   A,B,C,F,I and P  
Pennsylvania Series ("Pennsylvania")   A,F and P  

 

Each Fund is non-diversified as defined under the Act, except for National and Intermediate. As of the date of this report, only Intermediate and High Yield have issued Class P shares, and National and High Yield have been authorized to issue but have not issued Class I shares.

The investment objective of each Fund (except for High Yield) is to seek the maximum amount of interest income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk. Each Fund (except for National, Intermediate and High Yield) also seeks as high a level of interest income exempt from the personal income tax of its corresponding state as is consistent with reasonable risk. The investment objective of High Yield is to seek a high level of income exempt from federal income tax. New York also seeks as high a level of interest income exempt from New York City personal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk.

Each class has different expenses and dividends. A front-end sales charge is normally added to the Net Asset Value ("NAV") for Class A shares. There is no front-end sales charge in the case of the Class B, C, F, I and P shares, although there may be a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") as follows: Class A shares purchased without a sales charge and redeemed before the first day of the month in which the one-year anniversary of the purchase falls (subject to certain exceptions); Class B shares redeemed before the sixth anniversary of purchase; and Class C shares redeemed before the first anniversary of purchase. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares on the 25th day of the month (or the next business day thereafter) following the eighth anniversary of the original purchase of Class B shares. As of October 1, 2007, the Funds' Class P shares were closed to substantially all new retirement and benefit plans and fee-based programs, with certain exceptions as set forth in the Funds' Prospectus.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)  Investment Valuation–Securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices on the basis of prices supplied by independent pricing services, which reflect broker/dealer supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. Exchange traded options and futures contracts are valued at the last sale price in the market where they are principally traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by management and approved in good faith by the Board of Directors/Trustees. Short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity are valued using the amortized cost method, which approximates current value.

(b)  Security Transactions–Security transactions are recorded as of the date that the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses on sales of portfolio securities are calculated using the identified-cost method. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day.

(c)  Investment Income–Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized using the effective interest method. Investment income is allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day.

(d)  Federal Taxes–It is the policy of each Fund to meet the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

(e)  Expenses–Expenses incurred by the Company and Trust that do not specifically relate to an individual Fund are generally allocated to the Funds within the Company and Trust on a pro-rata basis. Expenses, excluding class specific expenses, are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day. Class A, B, C, F and P shares bear their class specific share of all expenses and fees relating to the Funds' 12b-1 Distribution Plan.

(f)  Futures Contracts–Each Fund may purchase and sell futures contracts for bona fide hedging purposes including hedging against changes in interest rates and securities prices. At the time of entering into a futures transaction, an investor is required to deposit and maintain a specified amount of cash or eligible securities called "initial margin." Subsequent payments called "variation margin" are made on a daily basis as the market price of the futures contract fluctuates. Each Fund will record an unrealized gain (loss) based on the amount of variation margin. When a contract is closed, a realized gain (loss) is recorded equal to the difference between the opening and closing value of the contract. Generally, open futures contracts are marked to market for federal income tax purposes at fiscal year-end. As of September 30, 2008, each Fund had open futures contracts.

(g)  When-Issued Municipal Bonds–Each Fund may purchase new issues of municipal bonds, which are generally offered on a when-issued basis, with delivery and payment normally taking place approximately one month after the purchase date.

(h)  Municipal Bonds Held in Trust–Each Fund may invest in leveraged residual certificates ("TOB Residuals") issued by tender option bond trusts ("TOBs"). A TOB is established by a third party sponsor forming a special purpose entity into which a Fund, or an agent on behalf of the Fund, transfers municipal securities. A TOB typically issues two classes of beneficial interests: short-term floating rate certificates (trust certificates), which are sold to third party investors, and residual certificates, which are generally issued to a Fund which made the transfer or to affiliates of the Fund. Each Fund's transfer of the municipal securities to a TOB does not qualify for sale treatment under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 140 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," therefore the municipal securities deposited into a TOB are presented in a Fund's Schedule of Investments and the proceeds from the transactions are reported as a liability for trust certificates on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Similarly, proceeds from residual certificates issued to affiliates, if any, from the transaction are included in the liability for trust certificates. Interest income from the underlying security is recorded by a Fund on an accrual basis. Interest expense incurred on the secured borrowing and other expenses related to remarketing, administration and trustee services to a TOB are reported as expenses of a Fund. The floating rate certificates have interest rates that generally reset weekly and their holders have the option to tender certificates to the TOB for redemption at par at each reset date. The residual interests held by a Fund include the right of the Fund (1) to cause the holders of a proportional share of floating rate certificates to tender their certificates at par and (2) to transfer a corresponding share of the municipal securities from the TOB to the Fund. At September 30, 2008, the aggregate value of the underlying municipal securities transferred to TOBs, the liability for trust certificates and the range of interest rates for such certificates were:

Fund   Liability for
Trust Certificates
  Interest Rate
or Range of
Interest Rates
  Underlying
Municipal Bonds
Transferred
to TOBs
 
National   $ 88,963,000     4.33% - 8.51%   $ 160,616,544    
California     15,700,000     8.00% - 8.40%     30,704,077    
Connecticut     5,080,000     8.46%     9,515,602    
Hawaii     5,000,000     8.46%     9,148,200    
New York     19,991,430     4.33% - 8.00%     36,772,077    
Intermediate     3,985,000     7.96% - 8.00%     7,768,542    
Georgia     11,270,000     7.99% - 8.24%     21,523,442    
High Yield     112,474,226     7.46% - 8.51%     188,940,478    
Pennsylvania     5,690,000     8.46%     10,792,564    

 

Financial transactions executed through TOBs generally will underperform the market for fixed rate municipal bonds in a rising interest rate environment, but tend to outperform the market for fixed rate municipal bonds when interest rates decline or remain relatively stable. Should short-term interest rates rise, a Fund's investment in TOB Residuals likely will adversely affect a Fund's net investment income and distributions to shareholders. Fluctuations in the market value of municipal securities deposited into the TOB may adversely affect a Fund's net asset value per share.


193



Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

While the Funds' investment policies and restrictions expressly permit investments in inverse floating rate securities such as TOB Residuals, they generally do not allow the Funds to borrow money for purposes of making investments. The Funds' management believes that the Funds' restrictions on borrowings do not apply to the secured borrowings deemed to have occurred for accounting purposes.

4. DISTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARDS

Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Taxable net realized gains from investment transactions, reduced by allowable capital loss carryforwards, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. The capital loss carryforward amount, if any, is available to offset future net capital gains. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These book/tax differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions, which exceed earnings and profits for tax purposes, are reported as a tax return of capital.

The tax character of the distributions paid during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was as follows:

6. DIRECTORS'/TRUSTEES' REMUNERATION

The Company's and Trust's officers and the two Directors/Trustees who are associated with Lord Abbett do not receive any compensation from the Company or Trust for serving in such capacities. Outside Directors'/Trustees' fees are allocated among all Lord Abbett-sponsored funds based on the net assets of each fund. There is an equity-based plan available to all outside Directors/Trustees under which outside Directors/Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, Directors'/Trustees' fees. The deferred

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in the funds. Such amounts and earnings accrued thereon are included in Directors'/Trustees' fees on the Statements of Operations and in Directors'/Trustees' fees payable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are not deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes until such amounts are paid.

7. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS

The Company and Trust have entered into agreements with the Funds' transfer agent and custodian, whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce a portion of each Fund's expenses.

8. LINE OF CREDIT

High Yield, along with certain other funds managed by Lord Abbett, has available a $250,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility ("Facility") from a consortium of banks, to be used for temporary or emergency purposes as an additional source of liquidity to fund redemptions of investor shares. Any borrowings under this Facility will bear interest at current market rates as defined in the agreement. The fee for this Facility is an annual rate of .08% of the available amount. As of September 30, 2008, there were no loans outstanding pursuant to this Facility nor was the Facility utilized at any time during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008.

9. CUSTODIAN AND ACCOUNTING AGENT

State Street Bank & Trust Company ("SSB") is the Company's and Trust's custodian and accounting agent. SSB performs custodial, accounting and recordkeeping functions relating to portfolio transactions and calculating each Fund's NAV.

10. INVESTMENT RISKS

Each Fund's performance and the value of its investments will vary in response to changes in interest rates and other market factors. As interest rates rise, a Fund's investments typically will lose value. This risk is usually greater for long-term bonds and particularly for inverse floaters than for short-term bonds. As a result, the Funds, which tend to invest in longer-term bonds and inverse floaters to a greater degree than some municipal bond funds, normally will have greater market risk than those funds.

Additional risks that could reduce each Fund's performance or increase volatility include call risk, governmental risk, legislative risk, management risk and credit risk. Credit risk varies among states based upon the economic and fiscal conditions of each state and the municipalities within the state.

There is the risk that an issuer of a municipal bond may fail to make timely payments of principal or interest to a Fund, a risk that is greater with municipal bonds rated below investment grade (sometimes called "lower rated bonds" or "junk bonds"). High Yield invests a significant portion of its assets in such bonds. The National Fund may invest up to 35% and all other Funds may invest up to 20% in such bonds. Some issuers, particularly of junk bonds, may default as to principal and/or interest payments after a Fund purchases their securities. A default, or concerns in the market about an increase in risk of default or the deterioration in the creditworthiness of

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

an issuer, may result in losses to the Fund. Junk bonds are considered predominantly speculative by traditional investment standards. In addition, the market for lower rated municipal bonds generally is less liquid than the market for higher rated bonds, subjecting them to greater price fluctuations which could result in losses.

Each Fund (except National and Intermediate) is non-diversified, which means that it may invest a greater portion of its assets in a single issuer than a diversified fund. Thus, it may be exposed to greater risk.

Because each Fund other than National, Intermediate and High Yield, focuses on a particular state or territory, each Fund's performance may be more affected by local, state and regional factors than a fund that invests in municipal bonds issued in many states, such as National, Intermediate and High Yield. These factors may, for example, include economic or political developments, erosion of the tax base and the possibility of credit problems. In addition, downturns or developments in the U.S. economy or in foreign economies or significant world events may harm the performance of each Fund, and may do so disproportionately as a result of the corresponding disproportionate impact of such occurrences on particular state, territory, or local economies.

Each Fund (except High Yield) may invest up to 20% of its net assets in private activity bonds (sometimes called "AMT paper"). High Yield may invest up to 100% of its net assets in AMT paper. The credit quality of such bonds usually is directly related to the credit standing of the private user of the facilities.

Each Fund may invest no more than 20% of its net assets in TOB Residuals, except High Yield, which may invest up to 100% in TOB Residuals. A TOB Residual, sometimes referred to as an inverse floater or a residual interest bond ("RIB"), is a type of "derivative" debt instrument with a floating or variable interest rate that moves in the opposite direction of the interest rate on another specific fixed-rate security ("specific fixed-rate security"). Changes in the interest rate on the specific fixed-rate security inversely affect the residual interest paid on the TOB Residual, with the result that when interest rates rise, TOB Residuals' interest payments are lowered and their value falls faster than securities similar to the specific fixed-rate security. When interest rates fall, not only do TOB Residuals generally provide interest payments that are higher than securities similar to the specific fixed-rate security, but their values generally also rise faster than such similar securities.

In addition, loss may result from a Fund's investments in certain derivative transactions such as futures contracts, swap transactions, interest rate caps, inverse floaters and similar transactions. These instruments may be leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate and substantial losses to the Fund. They also may increase a Fund's interest rate risk.

Each Fund may purchase securities on a forward commitment or when-issued basis. Delivery and payment for such securities can take place a month or more after the transaction date. During this period such securities are subject to market fluctuations.

12. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet before being recognized in the financial statements. Effective March 31, 2008, the Funds adopted FIN 48. The adoption of FIN 48 did not result in a material impact on the Funds' net assets, results of operations and financial statement disclosures. The Funds file U.S. federal and various state tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The Funds' U.S. federal tax returns remain open for the years ended September 30, 2005 through September 30, 2008.


207



Notes to Financial Statements (concluded)

In September 2006, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements ("SFAS 157"), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on each Fund's financial statements and disclosures.

In March 2008, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("SFAS 161"). SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 161 will have on each Fund's financial statements and disclosures.

The Board of Directors and Shareholders,
Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (the "Funds") comprising Lord Abbett National Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett California Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett Connecticut Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett Hawaii Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett Missouri Tax-Free Income Fund, Lord Abbett New Jersey Tax-Free Income Fund and Lord Abbett New York Tax-Free Income Fund as of September 30, 2008, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, and the statement of cash flows of Lord Abbett California Tax-Free Income Fund for the year ended September 30, 2008. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2008, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting the Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc. as of September 30, 2008, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, and the cash flows of Lord Abbett California Tax-Free Income Fund for the year ended September 30, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
