You have to be careful. They may not always include local taxes. MD for example, they only show the state part of the income tax. Each county adds another 2-3% on top of the state tax. It adds up.

SC got a Most friendly rating and
PA god a Friendly rating

SC taxes retirement income and PA does not yet it got a higher, not lower rating. Not completely accurate I think.

Similarly, Ohio does not tax military retirement pay, but the article doesn't make this clear (the wording is obtuse).
