Flint paycheck FAQ

Does Flint's resident vs non-resident split match Detroit's?
Both cities use the same structural pattern (resident rate and roughly half non-resident rate), but the rates differ: Flint resident 1% vs Detroit resident 2.4%. Flint's overall city tax burden sits well below Detroit's.
How does Flint compare to Saginaw, just up the road?
Saginaw's resident rate is 1.5%, above Flint's 1%. The two cities sit in adjacent Michigan counties and the rate gap produces measurable resident-to-resident differences on similar gross incomes.
If I work in Flint but live in a suburb, what do I owe?
Flint's non-resident rate (0.5%) applies to your wages earned in the city. The home city's income tax (if any) applies separately. Most Genesee County suburbs surrounding Flint do not levy a city income tax.
