Most tax revenue came from income taxes ($22.8 billion) and sales and gross receipts taxes ($17.9 billion).
The STC survey includes five broad tax categories and up to 25 subcategories. Data is gathered from all 50 state governments and all dependent state-level entities.
The Census Bureau sets the tax classifications among the survey categories and cautions they may differ from the classifications set by the state governments.
