How New Mexico state income tax works

New Mexico's brackets for single filers are 1.5% up to $5,500, 3.2% to $16,500, 4.3% to $33,500, 4.7% to $66,500, 4.9% to $210,000, and 5.9% above $210,000. Married filing jointly uses higher thresholds at each step. Most middle-income workers pay between 4.3% and 4.9% on their top dollars.

New Mexico's standard deduction matches the federal amount of $16,100 single / $32,200 joint, which the calculator subtracts before applying brackets. That generous deduction keeps the effective rate well below the marginal bracket rate for many workers.
