Best and Worst States for Taxes for Startup Companies
Best and Worst States for Taxes for Startup Companies
Startup companies face many forms of opposition as they set out to change the world, or at least carve out their own niche – even though they are typically working to provide solutions. That doesn’t mean that people or other businesses oppose them, necessarily, but rather there are so many difficult things they have to overcome and fight through to become successful; not the least of which is their taxes.
When it comes to taxes and startup companies, location does matter. According to are cent study from CRN, your efforts to provide solutions for change will be challenged more by higher taxes depending on where you live. According to the study, the ten best places for Millennials to start a business when it comes to taxes are as follows: Mississippi, Nebraska, Missouri, Arizona, New Mexico, Indiana, Delaware, Ohio, Oklahoma and Florida.
On the other end of the spectrum, if you want to change the world with your startup company then you might want to avoid these 10 states, which were rated the worst for startup companies when it comes to taxes: Idaho, New Jersey, Illinois, Maine, New Hampshire, Kentucky, Arkansas, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and the worst being Rhode Island.
So, if you want to start a company to help solve a problem, you might first want to consider relocating to one of the top 10 states on this list, especially if you live in one of the bottom ten.
