Retiring in Cataluña

Income tax, wealth tax and the solidarity tax are set by the region, so every town in Cataluña pays the same. Only property tax changes from town to town.

Tax

For a couple aged 65 to 74 with €90,000 a year in income, mostly US Social Security and retirement accounts, before property tax:

Net wealth	Income tax	Wealth taxes	Per year	Rank of 15

€5.0M	€12,841	€29,174	€42,015	12

Wealth taxes are the regional wealth tax (Patrimonio) and the national solidarity tax (ITSGF) together. Rank 1 is the cheapest region. Your own figures change the result: enter them on the Index.
