It may come as no surprise that the first entry of our list is Wyoming since it is the most tax-friendly state. If possible, all middle-class families should relocate here. The Equality State is able to keep its taxes low due to its mineral and energy extraction.
With no income tax, Wyoming is a safe bet for middle-class families that struggle with their finances. Plus, according to the Tax Foundation, the state’s combined state and average local sales tax rate is actually the third-lowest of all U.S. states.
