How Ohio taxes your paycheck

Ohio has compressed its brackets toward a low top rate, but most municipalities add a 1%–3% city income tax.

Local taxes: Most Ohio municipalities levy a 1%–3% city income tax (administered by RITA or CCA).

Every U.S. paycheck also has federal income tax (based on the 2025 brackets and your filing status), Social Security (6.2% up to the annual wage base) and Medicare (1.45%). Pre-tax 401(k) and HSA contributions lower the income that both federal and state taxes apply to, so raising your retirement contribution is the simplest way to shrink the tax line.
