The Rush To Reno & Lake Tahoe, NV: Escaping The Burdens of CA’s Prop. 55

California voters approved Prop.55 in November, but the stream of Californians who have decided that home is going to mean Nevada is strong.

Here’s what Californians are escaping:

Prop. 55 created four high-income tax brackets for California residents, and it boosted the tax rates by anywhere from 10 percent to nearly 30 percent for wealthy Californians. The state tax rate for taxpayers who make $1 million or more, for instance, rose to 13.3 percent from the previous 10.3 percent. An estimated 3 percent of California’s taxpayers — have decided that Nevada’s income-tax-free environment looks far more attractive. Why? Check out these perks of living in Nevada:
