* Alabama’s standard deduction ($2,500–$4,000) varies with income. Washington has no wage income tax but levies a 7% capital gains tax on high earners. “Follows federal” means the state starts from federal taxable income or conforms to the federal standard deduction. Figures are key 2026 rates for orientation — always verify with your state’s Department of Revenue.
States With No Income Tax
Nine states levy no tax on individual wage income:
- Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, Wyoming — no individual income tax at all.
- New Hampshire — fully repealed its interest-and-dividends tax in 2025; no income tax remains.
Living in one of these states doesn’t mean zero state taxes — they typically make up the revenue with higher property, sales, or excise taxes.
Flat Tax vs. Graduated Tax
A flat tax applies one rate to all taxable income (e.g., Arizona’s 2.5%, Illinois’ 4.95%). Fourteen states use flat rates in 2026. A graduated (progressive) tax applies higher rates to higher slices of income (e.g., California’s 1% to 13.3%). The top rate alone can mislead — a state’s standard deduction, exemptions, and where its brackets kick in matter just as much for your actual bill.
