Somalia may be an overkill.

Florida, on the other hand, does not tax its residents, while still having roads, schools and police.

Yes, it does.

It doesn’t happen to use a personal income tax, but it absolutely does tax it's population.

That being said, Florida's sales tax is less than that in New York and property tax is half of New York's.

The roads in Florida are generally better (and cheaper), schools are good [1] and Florida State University is ranked higher than SUNY [2].
