How Arizona taxes your paycheck

Arizona levies a flat state income tax of 2.5% on income above roughly $13,850 (the state's deduction or exemption). Unlike progressive states, your marginal state rate does not climb as income rises — every taxable dollar is taxed at the same 2.5%.

The federal side

Every U.S. worker pays federal income tax (2026 single-filer standard deduction: $16,100, brackets from 10% to 37%), Social Security at 6.2% of wages up to $184,500, and Medicare at 1.45% (plus 0.9% on wages above $200,000). Employer 401(k) matches, health premiums, and HSA contributions reduce taxable income and are not modeled here.
