[Tell It Right]

Georgia has a $65K per person income deduction for retirees. So if you're married you and your spouse have to have at least $130K in income to be taxed by Georgia. However, you have to be 65 years old. Otherwise you'll pay up to 6% on state income tax in Georgia on taxable income.

And Tennessee has no income tax.

So if you're at least 65 and have a taxable income less than $65K ($130K if married), then income tax wise there's no difference between Tennessee and Georgia because both are $0.

I've researched this because my wife and I think about retiring to the same area in a few years. But it's off the table if Georgia or Tennessee force their residents to root for the Dawgs or Vols. :)
