Abstract

Taxpayers in the US are subject to taxation at three levels: Federal, State, and Local. While federal taxes are imposed uniformly across all the states, state, municipal and sales taxes vary widely. Here, PERC's Montgomery Professor Dennis W. Jansen and PERC Graduate Student Thamina Uddin provide a comprehensive comparison of the taxation burden across the fifty states and the District of Columbia, focusing on the use and distribution of property, sales, and income taxes to Personal Income for the years 2013-2021.
