    "context": "Alabama's top 5% rate starts at $3,000, but Alabama is one of the few states that lets you deduct federal income tax first. Standard deduction shown is the low-income maximum; it shrinks as income rises. Standard deduction / exemptions used here: $4,000 single, $8,500 joint. Married couples have their own published brackets. City and county income taxes, where they exist, come on top.",
