According to a recent study, Florida is among the top 10 states with the lowest tax burden

An analysis by MoneyGeek ranked every state by how “tax-friendly” it is. The analysts didn’t just look at income tax – they also factored in property taxes, plus state and local sales taxes.

To determine where people pay the highest tax burden, MoneyGeek looked at a hypothetical average family: a married couple with one kid, earning the median national income of $82,852, owning a $349,400 home. The study breaks down how much this fictional family would pay in taxes in every state.

The states with the lowest tax burden, according to the analysis, were:

1. Wyoming (estimated taxes: 4% of income or $3,279)

2. Nevada (estimated taxes: 4.7% of income or $3,879)

3. Alaska (estimated taxes: 5.4% of income or $4,507)

4. Florida (estimated taxes: 5.6% of income or $4,632)
