New Hampshire versus the states next-most-affordable for taxes

Other US states ranked just above New Hampshire on the $100K single-filer state-tax burden, the next tier of "low-tax" jurisdictions.

Because New Hampshire has no state income tax, the meaningful comparison isn't "neighbors above and below" (everyone with tax is "above" us at any income level) - it's the nearest tier of low-tax states a New Hampshire resident might compare against if they relocated. Each card below shows that state's top marginal rate, structure, and the dollar burden a $100K single filer would face. Compared to New Hampshire's $0, the gap is the cost-of-tax of moving away from one of the nine no-income-tax jurisdictions.
