WELCOME TO MIAMI Miami continues to be one of the top popular migration destinations of any major U.S. metro area according to coverage by Mansion Global. The proof is in the numbers, with a record demand for real estate in South Florida. ONE Sotheby’s International Realty marked a banner year in 2021, with 121% growth from the previous year. Miami has matured into a diverse, cosmopolitan city worthy of more than a flashy getaway—and the world is not only watching— but making big moves to be a permanent part of the action. South Florida has seen a flood of new tech and startup founders, along with major finance and venture capital companies setting up shop. With Miami Mayor Francis Suarez positioning the city as a “crypto capital,” playing host to events such as the Bitcoin 2022 conference, crypto giants like FTX and Blockchain.com have left New York for new offices in Miami. Outside of the obvious reasons such as the near-perfect weather and natural beauty, the mass movement can be attributed to several reasons that range from the work-from-anywhere mindset to Florida’s lack of state income tax and low corporate tax rates. Factor in a large international airport and close proximity to Latin America, and it’s a good place to do business.

TAX BENEFITS

NO STATE INCOME TAX One of the top selling points is the fact that Florida is one of seven states(along with Washington, Alaska, Nevada, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Texas) that has no state income tax. For retirees without a lot of money saved but are still in good health and plan to keep working, Florida is a smart destination for avoiding in-state income taxes. The state does have a 6% levied sales tax rate and an average combined tax rate of 6.8%, but this isn’t particularly high relative to the rest of the country. RETIREMENT INCOME IS EXEMPT (INCLUDING SOCIAL SECURITY) Because Florida has no state income tax, this also means that retirement income is exempt from state taxation. Any money you receive from Individual Retirement Accounts, private and public pensions, 401(k) s, and Social Security, is completely free of in-state taxation. Florida is one of 37 states that currently does not tax Social Security benefits. A word to the wise: You may still have federal income-tax liability on some of these forms of retirement income, even if Florida isn’t taking a red cent. COST-OF-LIVING RIGHT AROUND THE NATIONAL AVERAGE Another reason to consider Florida is that it’s not particularly costly to live there. Using median household income from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey in 2015 and adjusting those figures to account for regional price parity based on calculations from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, Money found that Florida had a regional price parity index of 99.5. With 100 being the mark of parity, this suggests that Florida residents are paying an average of 0.5% less than the national average for goods and services. • Florida Sales Tax
