What You Should Know

While Texas has no state income tax, it relies heavily on sales tax (6.25% state rate, up to 8.25% with local taxes) and property taxes to fund state services. Texas property taxes are among the highest in the nation. Residents still owe federal income tax and FICA taxes on their earnings.
