31. South Carolina
A 6 percent levy is imposed by the state, but localities can add as much as 3 percent to the sales tax. In South Carolina, the lowest income rate is 3 percent on taxable income ranging from $3,030 to $6,059, while the highest one is 7 percent applied to more than $15,160 of taxable income.
The median property tax rate is $573 per $100,000 of assessed home value, and, thankfully, there’s no estate or inheritance tax.
32. South Dakota
In South Dakota, there’s virtually no estate, no inheritance, and no income tax. The state has a 4.5 percent levy, and, again, localities can make it 9 percent, and the saddest part about sales taxes is that many services, including groceries, are taxed.
