Welke staat heeft de laagste belastingen in 2024? Dat hangt ervan af of je alleen kijkt naar inkomstenbelastingen of ook naar onroerendgoed- en omzetbelastingen.
Hieronder hebben we geprobeerd antwoord te geven op de vraag in welke staat je financieel het beste af bent op basis van het mediane huishoudinkomen en de mediane belastingen.
Laten we om te beginnen eens kijken naar inkomstenbelastingen. De 5 staten met de hoogste inkomstenbelasting (federaal + deelstaat) op basis van het mediane inkomen van een huishouden zijn:
- Maryland: $21,525
- Washington DC: $21.086
- Hawaii: $19.276
- Oregon: $18.965
- Utah: $18.547
*Let op: bij de bovenstaande bedragen wordt ervan uitgegaan dat je als alleenstaande vult, getrouwde stellen kunnen minder betalen.
De volgende 9 staten hebben geen inkomstenbelasting:
- Alaska
- Florida
- Nevada
- New Hampshire (5% alleen op rente en dividenden)
- South Dakota
- Tennessee
- Texas
- Washington (7.0% alleen op inkomsten uit vermogenswinst)
- Wyoming
Maar in de volgende 5 staten heb je het hoogste inkomen nadat de federale en staatsbelastingen zijn betaald.
- Maryland: $86,675
- Washington DC: $80.614
- Utah: $77.253
- Alaska: $77,229
- Washington: $76.988
Het is interessant om te zien dat in 3 van de 5 staten met de hoogste inkomstenbelasting huishoudens ook de meeste inkomsten na belasting hebben, terwijl de andere 2 staten geen inkomstenbelasting heffen.
De gegevens onderzoeken aan de hand van de onderstaande tabel:
| Staat | Bereik inkomstenbelastingtarief van de staat | Mediaan huishoudinkomen per staat | Verschuldigde inkomstenbelasting op basis van het mediane huishoudinkomen van de staat | Inkomen na belasting op basis van het mediane huishoudinkomen van de staat |
