NYC biggest threat, is people working from home. My job outsourced 3 departments, many of them are being retained by the new firms. These firms are all based outside of NYC and the retained employees will be working on multiple accounts. City tax was brought up in a meeting. Payroll seems to believe if you live in NYC but work for a company in Idaho and do remote work for clients in Texas you no longer work and live in NYC. It's no different than a Queens resident working in Nassau county, they don't pay city tax. Whether NYC want's to admit it the bridge and tunnel crowd is a massive revenue stream.
Yeah years before all of this I took my Ohio job to WA when full remote first became an option. Getting rid of the Ohio state and city income taxes more than covered the cost of living difference.
NH is looking at this now. Massachusetts and Maine both tax NH residents that work in those states. My guess is that soon, they will rule those taxes unconstitutional for those working from home.
