How Ohio taxes income
Ohio takes nothing on the first $26,050 of taxable income. Above that the state charges a flat $332 plus 2.75% of the rest, so the bill steps up by $332 at the moment that threshold is crossed rather than easing in. That step is in the statute, not a rounding.
Most Ohio municipalities levy their own income tax, commonly around 2%. This calculator does not include it, so your real deduction will be higher.
What this does not include
- Local or city income tax, which Ohio allows
- Dependants, children, and credits that have to be claimed on a return
- Post-tax deductions, such as health insurance premiums
- Anything on a W-4 beyond filing status
- Head of household and married filing separately, which are not modelled
