Useful context, not a generic percentage.
New York paychecks can include federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, New York State income-tax withholding, and entered benefits or deductions.
New York City and Yonkers withholding are both included. New York City taxes residents only, so commuters are shown a verified zero. Yonkers adds a 16.75% surcharge on a resident's state withholding, and charges nonresidents who work there a separate 0.50% earnings tax.
