Alaska, West Virginia, Oregon, Delaware, and Maryland have the lowest top 1% income tax shares, due to no or low state income taxes and limited broad-based taxes.
A new study by SmartAsset reveals that Alaska, West Virginia, Oregon, Delaware, and Maryland are the five states where the top 1% of earners pay the smallest share of income taxes, contributing between 26% and 30% of state income tax revenue despite earning a large portion of total income.
These states typically have no or low state income taxes and lack broad-based sales or property taxes, reducing the tax burden on high earners.
The findings underscore significant regional disparities in how the wealthiest Americans contribute to state tax systems.
