Yes no state incom tax here in Tennessee. Sales tax only but you only pay sales tax when you by something. Average sales tax is 9% depending on which county you live in. All my relatives in Michigan tell me 9% is robbery that it’s only 6% in Michigan. I just laugh at them and remind them the pay 6.5% state income tax plus the 6% sales tax when the purchase something. They just don’t get it. shruggy

Property tax is also low. I live on 7.5 acres, have a 3600 sq ft shop and 1900 sq ft house with a three car garage and only pay $1400 a year properly tax. I paid triple that on a .5 acre lot with a smaller house with two car garage when I left Michigan 13 years ago.
