The U.S. Census Bureau released new tables and files on Apr. 15 containing detailed data from its 2025 Annual Survey of State Government Tax Collections (STC). The release includes information about taxes imposed and collected by state governments and the District of Columbia, covering five main tax categories and up to 25 subcategories.
The availability of this data is important for lawmakers, analysts, and the public who use it to inform decisions about tax policy, economic estimates, and national accounts.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, “Congress, federal agencies, state and local governments, educational and research organizations, and the public use this information to examine and develop tax policy, gross domestic product estimates, and national income and product accounts.”
Those seeking further details about the STC can refer to technical documentation provided by the Census Bureau.
