Working in Findlay but living somewhere else
If you work in Findlay, your employer withholds the 1% Findlay tax. If your home city also has an income tax, it can tax you too. Most Ohio cities give a credit for tax paid to the city where you work, but the size of the credit varies, so you could owe your home city up to its full rate when you file. Enter a different home city in the calculator to see a reminder.
City tax is charged on your Medicare wages, so contributions to a 401(k) do not lower it, even though they lower your federal and Ohio income tax.
Why many Ohio workers get a state refund
Ohio's withholding formula takes more than the 2026 tax most workers owe, so part of your Ohio withholding usually comes back when you file.See how the two compare.
