New Jersey residents will pay more in taxes over their lifetimes than those in any other state, according to a recent study by Self Financial.

The analysis, titled A Life of Tax, estimates the average American will pay $524,625 in taxes over a lifetime, accounting for just over one-third of total earnings. However, New Jersey’s tax burden far surpasses that figure, with residents paying an average of $987,117 throughout their lives — the highest in the nation.

The study determined that this tax burden amounts to 54.3% of lifetime earnings, also the largest percentage among all states.

Here’s how New Jersey’s taxes break down:

• Property tax: $564,614 (highest in the nation)
• Income tax: $334,260 (6th highest in the nation)
• Personal spending tax: $54,961 (19th highest)
• Car tax: $33,282 (26th highest)

The report included property, income, sales, and vehicle taxes for all 50 states and Washington, D.C.

Other locations with high lifetime tax burdens include Washington, D.C. ($884,820), Connecticut ($855,307), Massachusetts ($816,700), and New York ($748,199).

While New Jersey’s property taxes are the highest in the nation, the state also ranks near the top for income taxes, further driving up its residents’ lifetime costs.
