Retirement Income Coming In? These 7 Reliable States WON’T Tax You

State With No Retirement Income: Alaska

  • Percent of 65 and older population: 8.4%
  • Income Tax Range: None
  • Social Security: None
  • Inheritance and Estate Taxes: None
  • Median rent per month: $1,837
  • Utilities: $295
  • Meal at average restaurant: $15

Alaska isn’t typically the first place that probably comes to mind when you think about places you would like to retire. But if you were to live there, NONE of your 401(k), IRA, or pension income would be taxed.

True, it can be cold, but the Alaska tax code is pretty good for the state’s senior citizens. This state is an excellent choice if you want to save money in retirement.

However, consider that senior care might cost you a small fortune because it’s among the most expensive states for senior care services. At the same time, retiring in Alaska can be financially beneficial.

You can escape state income tax by living in Juneau, but you can also get paid for living in this particular state, thanks to its oil wealth.

Locals receive an annual dividend from the Alaska Permanent Fund, created in 1976 to share the state’s oil income with persons who’ve been a resident for at least a year before applying. The dividend is currently $1,100.

    I noticed that each meal and monthly utilities are way under stated. Utilities include gas electric, water coming into home, water coming out, (sewerage), water drainage from rain, sewerage pipe repair fund. Trash can rental, trash pickup. On natural gas usage if you use below yearly average there is a 45$ payment. If you just have a gas meter there is a 30$ monthly meter charge. I don’t know how you show such a low amount for utilities? In Indiana you must pay 37 cents per gallon of gas for road maintenance and government vehicles and gas usage.
    You need to bring your information up to date.

    And a meal average is 17 dollars, a cup of coffee is 4 dollars. In Ky withdrawal from your 401 is 6 cents tax for every dollar.

    You have to click on each page number and you’ll be taken to the next. It’s not a huge headline, but the names are there. You read, click on the next number and so on.

    Indiana does NOT tax SS benefits and neither does the Federal government IF that is your ONLY source of income. If you are employed in the state of Indiana, then you will be taxed on your employment income by both state and Federal tax.

    It’s the same in Illinois. We are taxed to death.

    Was Joe Biden the worst U.S. President in American History? Who leaves their home without a beg over their head who voted for Biden?
