Answer: I used live in Oxnard, CA.
The federal taxes are the same no matter where you live. Florida has no income tax. California does have an income tax. If your income is rather small, you may not owe any California taxes. California is similar to the federal government in that they give you tax breaks for having dependents and deductions. They follow federal law quite closely. If you are married with children, you probable won’t owe any CA income tax if your income is under $30,000. Like Mathew said, as your income grows, the tax rate grows. I made close to $100,000 with no children or deductions and only paid CA 6%, so the max rate of 9.3% is tough to reach unless you are making mega bucks.
You will find Oxnard much different than Florida. Florida is flat, has humidity and bugs, is mostly sand, and has bad storms and lots of lightning. Oxnard is very mild. It rarely goes over 80 and rarely gets colder than 48. It basically only rains from November to April. When it rains, it can rain hard…but it rarely rains even during the rainy season. Why? It is close to the ocean and its weather is highly dependent on the ocean. It often gets foggy in the morning, especially in the late spring, early fall. The fog usually burns off by noon, but sometimes lingers all day. Oxnard is rather flat, but go down the coast, up the coast, or a little north and you will find lots of mountains. There are basically no bugs at all. You can have an outdoor picnic at any time of the year and there will be no flying insects to interrupt. It will be hard to find a house for under $400,000. Rent varies by location. There are areas of Oxnard that are gated, upper end communities and there are areas that resemble a barrio. It would be beneficial, but not necessary, to speak Spanish.
Oxnard has grown substantially recently and is suffering a bit of growth pangs. There are roads that don’t handle the traffic well and are either in need of upgrades or in the process. There are plenty of places to shop and tons of restaurants. You will be close to Ventura and Camarillo and not too far from Malibu (just down the PCH) or Santa Barbara (just up the 101). There are tons of things to do and see. Enjoy.
States’ offer of tax breaks no guarantee for jobs
It’s recently become an article of faith for many governors as they try to attract jobs: raising taxes during a recession is a nonstarter, choking off growth and damaging a state’s fragile economic recovery.
