Living in vs working in the city

  • New York City taxes residents only. Commuters from outside the five boroughs pay no NYC income tax (the commuter tax was repealed in 1999).
  • Yonkers taxes residents through a surcharge of 16.75% of their net New York State tax, and taxes nonresidents who work there at 0.5% of wages, less a small exclusion.
  • There is no credit between the two taxes: a New York City resident who works in Yonkers pays both.
