How Alaska compares
Alaska is one of nine states with no tax on wages (Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington and Wyoming). At $100,000 a single filer here keeps $79,180, which is $5,055 more than in California and $4,860 more than in New York (before NYC tax). Keep in mind that states without an income tax often lean harder on sales and property taxes.
Federal taxes are the same in every state: the 2026 standard deduction is $16,100, brackets run from 10% to 37%, Social Security is 6.2% up to $184,500 and Medicare 1.45% (plus 0.9% above $200,000).
