How Ohio taxes your income
Ohio taxes income at a single rate of 2.75%, after an initial band of income taxed at 0%. Because there is one rate, your state effective rate stays close to 2.75% as income rises once deductions are used up.
We subtract an estimated $2,400 (the state standard deduction plus any dollar-amount personal exemption) from your income before applying the Ohio brackets.
Not modelled: personal tax credits, most income-based phase-outs, deductibility of federal tax where a state allows it, local income taxes (for example city or county taxes), and state payroll taxes such as disability or family-leave contributions.
