No city income tax in Shiawassee County

shiawassee county city income tax home buying

Good news if you earn a paycheck: none of Shiawassee County’s cities charges a local income tax. Owosso, Corunna, Durand, Laingsburg, and Perry all skip it, so you won’t owe a city tax on your wages on top of the state income tax. About two dozen Michigan cities — like Flint, Lansing, Saginaw, and nearby Lapeer — do charge one, usually around 1% for residents, but no city in Shiawassee County is on that list. Here, the local taxes that matter for a homeowner are property taxes, not an income tax.
