State Income Tax Rates, 2026

The table below lists the top marginal state income tax rate for all 50 states and the District of Columbia, sorted from highest to lowest. 9 of the 51 jurisdictions in our data levy no tax on wage income. A top marginal rate is the rate on your last dollars of income, not what you pay overall, and most states reach it only at high incomes, so the real cost to you depends on your salary.

Each state page shows the full bracket schedule, the state tax owed at several salaries, and take-home pay after federal, state and FICA taxes at $50,000, $75,000, $100,000 and $150,000 for a single filer. It also lists the 2026 federal brackets for single and married-filing-jointly returns, which are the same in every state. Local income taxes, deductions and credits specific to a state are not modeled, and our state tables hold one schedule per state (single filer).
