Learn moreAn honestly-disclosed property-tax approximation
No Washington County-specific effective property tax rate distinct from Minnesota's own statewide average (~1.04%) was found this pass -- this record discloses that gap rather than presenting a false-precision figure, bracketed by Dakota County's lower rate (~0.99%) and Hennepin County's higher rate (~1.17%-1.19%) documented elsewhere in this Minnesota Tier A wave.
Minnesota's real 4-bracket income tax
Minnesota's real, genuine 4-bracket state income tax runs 5.35% to 9.85% (on income over approximately $193,240 for single filers, 2026), applying statewide including in Woodbury, with NO local or county piggyback income tax layer.
A genuine Social Security taxation outlier
Minnesota still taxes Social Security retirement income above an income-based exemption threshold ($86,410 single/HOH, $110,780 joint, 2026) -- a real, honestly-disclosed outlier among relocation-relevant states.
Key takeaways
- Washington County's property tax rate is approximated against Minnesota's ~1.04% statewide average -- honestly disclosed as an estimate.
- Minnesota's flat-bracket 4-tier state income tax (5.35%-9.85%) applies statewide, including in Woodbury.
