New York uses a progressive state income tax system with rates from 4% to 10.9%. Your paycheck withholding increases as taxable income moves into higher brackets, so your effective tax rate is usually lower than your top marginal bracket.
New York is also one of the few states where local income taxes can significantly impact take-home pay. New York City residents pay an additional city income tax (3.078% to 3.876%), and Yonkers residents may owe a surcharge based on state tax liability.
Because of both state and potential local tax withholding, New York paychecks can vary a lot by location even with identical salaries and filing status.
