For now no, although there have been whispers of a 1% income tax. Regardless, it won't be 4% though. I spend a lot of time in NYC but was born and raised in Jersey, I'd live here regardless, but the 4% savings nice

Yeah that's no joke saving this much, good for you! I just accepted that a huge chunk of my paycheck goes to paying for the privilege of living in NYC...a sad realization haha.

It was discussed in Reddit and promptly shut down.

They would have to amend the state law to establish a local income tax. I don’t see that happening any time soon.
