Group says Idaho economic rank improves from tax-burden standpoint
May 13, 2010/
Idaho’s economic outlook has improved, and the state now ranks seventh, according to the American Legislative Exchange Council’s new Rich States, Poor States report. Idaho improved from 14th a year ago due to its relatively low property tax burden, good labor policy, lack of a state estate tax and the second lowest state debt ratio. But Idaho has room for improvement, especially regarding its income tax rates that are higher than average, the group said.
