Sources and methodology

Federal brackets, standard deductions and FICA thresholds come from the IRS and the Social Security Administration for the 2026 tax year. State income tax rates, brackets, standard deductions and personal exemptions come from the Tax Foundation’s 2026 state individual income tax data (updated 2026-02-17). Property tax figures use average effective county rates. Results are educational estimates and exclude local taxes, credits and post-tax deductions.
