2017 State Business Tax Climate Index

Factoid

The Economic Development Corporation of Sarasota County shares the 2017 State Business Tax Climate Index as compiled by the Tax Foundation. The report indicates that Florida ranks No. 4 best state for overall tax climate in the US. The index enables business leaders, government policymakers and taxpayers to gauge how their states’ tax systems compare. While there are many ways to show how much is collected in taxes by state governments, the index is designed to show how well states structure their tax systems, and provides a roadmap for improvement. The above chart shows the best 10 and the worst 10 states for the business tax climate in 2017.
