  "_notes": "top_rate_pct is the top statutory marginal rate on ordinary income (which includes interest) for tax year 2026. interest_taxed=false means the state levies no tax on interest income. Rates exclude local income taxes; states where local add-ons commonly apply to interest are flagged in local_note. Graduated-rate states apply lower rates at lower incomes — calculators should treat top_rate_pct as a ceiling preset and let users enter their own marginal rate. Refresh cadence: annually after each state legislative season.",
