Paycheck Calculator FAQ

What is the Ohio state income tax rate in 2026?

A flat 2.75% on nonbusiness taxable income above $26,050; income at or below the threshold owes nothing. House Bill 96 finished a multi-year phase-down, 2025 still taxed income over $100,000 at 3.125%, so 2026 is the first fully flat year. Among neighbors, only no-tax states withhold less at the state line.

How much is Columbus city income tax?

2.5% of wages, withheld by your employer for work performed in Columbus, the same headline rate as Cleveland and Akron, with Cincinnati at 1.8% and Dayton at 2.5%. If you live in one city and work in another, your resident city may grant a partial credit for tax paid where you work; the rules differ city by city.

Do Ohio municipal taxes apply to overtime and site work?

Yes, municipal tax is withheld on wages earned in the city where the work happens, which matters for trades rotating across job sites. Employers must track work-city withholding once you spend more than 20 days in a municipality, so a year split between Columbus and a township can produce genuinely different net pay.

How much of my salary do I keep in Ohio?

Typically 74-83% for salaries between $40,000 and $120,000 (single filer, standard federal deduction) after federal tax, the 2.75% state tax and FICA, then subtract your city's 1%-2.5%. A $65,000 salary nets about $52,300 before municipal tax. Enter your exact salary and deductions for a precise breakdown.

Ohio Take-Home

Take-home pay in Ohio: what makes it different

An Ohio paycheck loses federal income tax, Social Security (6.2%), Medicare (1.45%) and Ohio's flat 2.75% state income tax, newly flat for 2026 with the first $26,050 of taxable income exempt. The real variable is municipal: nearly every Ohio city withholds its own 1%-2.5% wage tax, Columbus, Cleveland and Akron all charge 2.5%, so your job site's city matters as much as the state rate. A single filer earning $65,000 takes home about $52,300 a year (81%) before municipal tax. Enter any gross salary for the exact breakdown.

Is Ohio a low-tax state for wage earners?

At the state line, nearly the lowest outside the no-tax states, 2.75% with a $26,050 exemption undercuts every neighbor. Add a 2.5% big-city municipal tax, though, and an urban Ohio worker pays about 5% combined, comparable to Illinois. Township and suburban residents with suburban job sites keep the most.

How does Ohio take-home compare to nearby states?

Better than the Midwest average for suburban workers, similar for city workers. Against Pennsylvania (3.07% + ~1% local) and Indiana (3.05% + county tax), Ohio's 2.75% + municipal lands within a few hundred dollars a year at $65,000. Kentucky's flat 4% plus occupational taxes withholds more.

What deductions come out of an Ohio paycheck?

Federal income tax, Social Security (6.2% to $176,100), Medicare (1.45%, plus 0.9% over $200,000), the flat 2.75% Ohio tax above the exemption, your municipal income tax of 1%-2.5%, possibly a school-district income tax in some districts, and any voluntary pre-tax items, 401(k), health premiums, HSA/FSA and union dues.
