Abstract I survey recent research on subnational income tax policy, arguing that a defining feature is geography. Geographic boundaries limit the power of subnational governments to tax people and activities. The article discusses where income should be taxed and the effects of these tax rules on the interjurisdictional mobility of people and jobs.
