A person living in NYC making $155k pays 34% effective tax rate. (Or in Seattle: 25%, Chicago: 30%.) This calculator is pretty good: https://smartasset.com/taxes/income-taxes#4RIGzkc2ey

I don’t understand your point about the employer portion — it doesn’t come out of your paycheck, so if you wanted to include it in this calculation, you’d have to say your gross salary was higher.

If I went one state over in any direction from Washington, could I pay an even lower effective tax rate?
