A Wisconsin Policy Forum report shows state taxpayers are giving up significantly less of their personal income than they did 20 years ago in this state.
The improvement in the Badger State tax picture is one of the best in the country. Wisconsin still is the 19th-highest taxed state in the latest measure, but it was seventh in 1997.
Taxes account for 10-point-three percent of Wisconsin personal incomes. Property taxes are the biggest chunk of that.
