6. Delaware
The best thing about relocating to Delaware is that the state imposes no sales taxes. Localities follow the state’s lead as well. The income tax ranges between 2.2 percent (applied on $2,001 of taxable income to $5,000) and 6.6. percent, the highest rate on more than $60,000.
If you want to buy a home in the First State, you must know that the median property tax rate is $563 per $100,000 of assessed home value. And just like the other states, Delaware is free of inheritance or estate taxation.
7. District of Columbia
The District of Columbia has a 6 percent sales tax, and that’s it. Here, the lowest income tax rate is 4 percent applied on up to $10,000 of taxable income. The highest rate in the District of Columbia is 8.95 percent when referring to more than $1 million of taxable income.
Homeowners here will face a $548 tax per $100,000 of assessed home value. Additionally, residents who own estates that are valued at over $5,762,400 have to deal with the state’s estate tax. The estate taxes can range between 12 percent and 16 percent. On a brighter note, there’s virtually no inheritance tax.
