Many States all over the country allow income taxes (which includes wages) to be imposed on the city or even more local level. Many, (actually most), do not.

So it just depends on where you live & or work.

Working in a city with an income tax normally subjects that income to that tax, so working in NYC but even living someplace in Connecticut, as many do, means you pay NYC tax on your earnings attributable to there. But not on your other earnings - say from a different job (or even same job but other locations) or investments, interest, etc. On the other hand, living in NYC and working someplace else, the income may be taxed by the other place, and all your income in NYC taxable there as well, with a credit (of some type) for the tax you paid already on the income to another jurisdiction.
