Especially outside of major cities, there are about a gazillion towns that have different tax rates that go to paying the local schools, emergency services, and town administration. Maybe there are APIs for that sort of information but I don't know.

That's why I want a guesstimate - give me a rough idea of how the tool works and that will convince me to dig out a tax return and fill in the fields for the most accurate estimate possible.
