State Tax Considerations

No State Income Tax States

  • • Alaska - No state income or sales tax
  • • Florida - Tourism and retirement friendly
  • • Nevada - Gaming and entertainment economy
  • • South Dakota - Low overall tax burden
  • • Tennessee - Only taxes investment income
  • • Texas - High property taxes offset
  • • Washington - High sales tax instead
  • • Wyoming - Energy revenue dependent

High Tax States to Consider

  • • California - Up to 13.3% state income tax
  • • New York - High state and local taxes
  • • New Jersey - High property taxes
  • • Connecticut - Wealth and income taxes
  • • Illinois - Flat income tax plus high property
  • • Maryland - Progressive income tax rates
  • • Massachusetts - "Millionaire's tax"
  • • Oregon - No sales tax but high income tax

💡 Tax Planning Tip

Consider total tax burden (income + property + sales + other local taxes) when comparing locations. A state with no income tax might have very high property taxes that offset the savings.
