Does Florida have a state income tax?

No — Florida has no state income tax, which is one of the big draws for people relocating here. You'll still pay federal income tax, property taxes, and sales tax, but keeping more of your paycheck is a real benefit.

No, Florida has no state income tax — it's one of the biggest reasons people relocate here from higher-tax states, and I see it change buyers' budgets in a real way.

You'll still pay federal income tax, Florida sales tax, and property taxes, of course. But not having a chunk taken for state income tax means your take-home pay often stretches further here than it did up north, which can translate into more home for your money. It's one of several reasons Central Florida keeps growing. (For your personal tax picture, check with a tax professional.)
