How Yonkers taxes your pay

Yonkers taxes residents and commuters in different ways. Residents pay a surcharge worked out as a share of their New York State income tax, so it rises with the state tax. People who work in Yonkers but live elsewhere pay an earnings tax on their wages instead, after a small exclusion.

A Yonkers resident who works in Manhattan pays the Yonkers surcharge but not New York City tax, which applies only to city residents.
