Site map

Every page on the site, and every one of them reachable from here. What has demand of its own is listed below; the long tail — counties, state pairs, city pairs, country pairs and the Canadian section — is listed in full on five section pages, because six thousand links on one page pass no weight to any of them.

The long tail, listed in full

Five sections, 6,543 pages between them, each grouped so a list that long can still be read.

Property tax in every US county3,143 pagesAll 3,143 counties, parishes and boroughs, grouped by state. Each page carries that county's own median rate and bill, not the state average.
Every state against every other1,326 pagesThe 1,275 state pairs, plus the index page each state has of its own fifty comparisons. The slug is always alphabetical, so there is one URL per question and not two.
Cities within the same state1,553 pagesMetropolitan areas compared against others in their own state, so the state income tax cancels and what is left is the price level and the property tax.
Countries against each other378 pagesThe same salary through each country's own published rules, adjusted for what it buys there.
Canada143 pagesA section of its own rather than one country page: income, sales, property, land transfer, capital gains and the registered accounts, federally and by province.

Refunds by state

What a refund is made of where you live: the state withholding, the credits that pay out in cash and the ones that only cut the bill.

Property tax by city

Cities whose tax bill was rebuilt levy by levy from the county property appraiser’s own millage tables, one tax-roll code at a time. More join as their rates are read.

Orlando, FL

Tax brackets by state

The 35 states whose single and joint schedules were both read at source, with each rate moved into salary terms. The rest join as their joint schedules are verified.

Car tax by state

The 46 states where the figure charged on a vehicle was read in a document published by the body that sets it. Five are missing on purpose, and the hub says which and why.

Sales tax by state

The 47 states with a rate and an exemption list read off the authority that sets them. Four are missing, three of which charge no sales tax at all.

Cities with a local income tax

The eleven states that permit a municipal income tax, at city level.

Outside the United States

Same discipline as the US pages: every rate read off the authority that sets it, with the date.

The machine-readable versions

The XML sitemap is split into 16 fragments rather than one flat file, so that indexing can be diagnosed per silo rather than in aggregate: sitemap.xml. County pages are split by whether they have measured search demand, because that is the split that actually answers a question, and each fragment carries the date its own source documents were read rather than the date the file was written.

There is also an llms.txt for language models, listing the key 2026 figures with the document each came from and the date it was verified — so a model can arrive at a number and leave with its source attached.
