Study Finds Oklahomans Don't Pay a Lot in Taxes

Oklahoma Watch

Tax Day is looming and with a new tax code in effect, WalletHub takes a look at tax burdens in all 50 states. It shows Oklahoma is NOT a high tax state, in fact, Analyst Jill Gonzalez says the Sooner State is near the bottom of the list when it comes to taxes as a share of personal income. Oklahoma ranks 49th in property tax burden, 35th in individual income tax burden, and 45th in overall tax burden.

States with the highest tax burdens are New York, Hawaii, and Maine.
