Comparison Inputs

Income Assumptions

Set the filing status and annual income used in the income-tax estimate, take-home-pay ranking, and summary cards.

Income tax filing status

Required when annual income is entered.

Annual income

Use numbers only; example: 100,000.

Qualifying children

Optional. Sets child-linked credits, child deductions, and dependent exemptions where a state's rules are loaded. Where a loaded rule uses a dependent count, qualifying children are the calculator's proxy. For Maine's Sales Tax Fairness Credit, that proxy stands in for children and dependents for whom the filer can claim an IRC Section 24 child or other-dependent credit. If the applicable count differs, modeled credits, deductions, or exemptions may be higher or lower than shown.

Income estimates subtract each jurisdiction's loaded standard deduction, the child deduction where a state has one, and personal exemptions where a state has them before applying loaded income-tax rows.

Tax Comparison

At A Glance

Estimated annual state/local income tax

Enter annual income to calculate income taxes. Address, housing, and property-tax context remain visible.

Federal income tax is not included. It applies separately in every location; for itemizers, state/local taxes and qualified mortgage interest can change federal taxable income under federal limits.

Owner housing is cash-flow context. Property tax and any entered mortgage payments are shown separately. Mortgage principal may build equity, interest is a borrowing cost, and home-value changes are not modeled.

Property tax by home value

Up to

Set each place's home value. The outlined shape on each place's line marks that place's US Census median home value, so you compare like with like.

Town of Greenwich (Fairfield County), CT

Home value $1,574,000

Town of Greenwich (Fairfield County) taxes assessed value, and its assessments sit well below market (about 47% of market here; no published reassessment plan). Because the roll lags the market, higher-value and recently-appreciated homes tend to be under-assessed, so a specific home — especially a recent purchase — is usually assessed below its price and pays less than this benchmark. Look up your parcel's assessed value for your actual bill.

Outlined shape on a line marks that place's US Census median home value (its typical home)
Filled dot marks the home value you entered (your estimated tax at that price) — seeded from each place's US Census median home value where available; adjust it with the sliders above.

Pre-credit modeled estimates: each place's effective residential rate times the home's market value, before homestead credits, exemptions, assessment caps, and parcel-specific special districts. Where a place has multiple tax areas, the model uses a representative residential stack — your school or special district may differ. Where assessment increases are capped, this approximates what a new buyer at that price would pay. Median home values: U.S. Census Bureau ACS 5-year estimates.

Places marked as an authoritative full-value rate (CT OPM) are computed from the taxing authority's own published figures for that community — its levy and level of assessment — expressed as a share of true market value. Other places use a modeled estimate. Both tiers are pre-credit and pre-exemption.

Housing Cost Inputs (Manual Entry)

Choose own or rent for each column. Owner columns count annual property tax and optional annual mortgage. Renter columns count monthly rent x 12; property tax is treated as included indirectly in rent. Insurance, HOA, maintenance, and price risk are not modeled in this MVP.

Annual property tax

Compare mode shows selected common categories and placeholder lanes for readability, not complete tax and fee coverage. The official source links support displayed rows.

Omitted categories may still be taxable, exempt, or taxed at a special rate.
Additional-fee rows are source-backed disclosures, not estimates, until required resident, property, vehicle, provider, or transaction facts are entered or modeled.
