True many of the states, with no income tax, that are rated favorably either have another industry footing most of the bill with local fees and taxes making up the difference or have small populations which don’t require the extensive local services large populations demand. Alaska has the pipeline and a small population, Nevada has gambling and a small population, whereas Florida has no income tax but tourism pays the tax bill.
Texas, which has no income tax, eats you alive with property taxes, it’s how they pay for all the local services.
Local taxes and fees are the hidden parasite when looking at income tax only. Some places the quality of life may negate this, but once a locality imposes taxes or fees they hardly ever eliminate them. Sort of like the Fed and state governments.
