Overview

Oklahoma is known for its small-town charm and rich Native American history. With a lower-than-average cost of living it may seem appealing for those seeking to raise a family, but beware. For middle-class Americans, Oklahoma is not very tax friendly. It not only has one of the highest combined sales tax rates in the country, but also high income taxes for those earning over $7,200 annually.
