[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in Montgomery county and make high six figures on a W2.  The loss of SALT deduction is making me reconsidering moving to northern VA for the lower income taxes. I rent and dont plan to buy a home.

Anyone else thinking of moving from MD to VA

We made that move then moved back.  I wouldn't do it again.  Our friends and family are in Maryland.  Driving to visit sucks and your friends don't want to drive to Virginia to see you.  Housing is more expensive in Virginia.  They have a car tax.  You have to get your car inspected every year (this is cheap and it's a good idea but it's inconvenient).  Driving over the American Legion bridge is horrible, I don't understand why it slows down with no exits.

On the plus side, your votes will be more important in national elections - but on the negative side you're going to be absolutely inundated by phone calls during the elections (and by this I mean many calls every day).  If you do move, make sure you turn in your Maryland license plate because as soon as they find out you don't have auto insurance in the state any longer and you still have your plates they fine you every day.
