Useful context, not a generic percentage.
Ohio paychecks can include federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, state withholding, municipal income tax, and school-district tax.
Both of Ohio's local income taxes are included, on opposite bases. School district tax is charged by the district you live in, for all 214 that levy it. Municipal income tax is withheld where you work, for all 678 taxing municipalities and 150 JEDDs. The resident credit your home municipality may allow is settled on your annual return and is not applied here.
