ionia county city income tax home buying

Good news if you’re settling in Belding: the city doesn’t charge a local income tax. That’s worth noting in this county, because two of Ionia County’s other cities — Ionia and Portland — do levy a 1% city income tax on residents (and 0.5% on nonresidents who work there). Belding doesn’t. Here you’ll pay property taxes, but not a separate city tax on your wages.
