Bottom line:  CA has very high taxes.  Depends on income and as a single
person, you will pay a lot.  401k contributions are tax deferred (till you
take them out).  EVERYTHING is significantly more expensive in California
than anywhere throughout this country I have been with the exception on the
NY area.  For example, in the LA area, sales tax is a whopping 8.25%.

| Hi,
|    can someone point me to a website where I can find state income
| tax information for different states ? I had found one recently but
| I am not able to locate it today. I tried all kinds of meta search
| engines etc to no avail.
|    In particular, whats the state income tax for California ? Is
| it a fixed % or does that also depend on income ? What will it be
| for a single porson with 69k per year salary ? If I live in
| California (Bay Area) is there any other tax that will be taken
| out from my salary apart from Federal, State, and Social Security ?
| Is the Social security tax different for California than for other
| states ?
|    Is my 401(k) contribution exempt only from Federal tax?
| Or is it exempt from state income tax also ?
|    Lastly, apart from rent(or buying a house) and gasolene, what
| else is significantly more expensive in the Bay Area ? For an 88
| toyota camry (I plan to use it forever) in decent shape, how much car
| registration fees and auto insurance do you think I will be paying ?
| 
| Thanks one and all.
| 
| PS: Please provide me a similar information for Seattle also, if you
could.
| Thanks.
