Compare annual state income tax between where you live now and a move.
About the Relocation Savings calculator
State income tax varies enormously — from 0% in states like Texas and Florida to over 13% at the top in California. For a high earner, where you live can swing your tax bill by tens of thousands of dollars a year. This calculator compares the annual state income tax you'd pay on the same income in two states, so you can see what a move could save — or cost — before you make it.
Frequently asked questions
Which states have no income tax?
Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming levy no state income tax. New Hampshire taxes only certain investment income.
How much can I save by moving to a no-income-tax state?
It depends on your income and current state. Moving from a high-tax state like California or New York to a no-tax state can save high earners tens of thousands per year — this calculator estimates your specific delta.
Does this include city or local income taxes?
This estimate covers state income tax only. Some cities, such as New York City, levy an additional local income tax that isn't reflected here.
Will I owe tax in both states the year I move?
Usually yes — you typically file part-year resident returns in both states for the year of the move, allocating income to where you earned it.
