Pennsylvania employers withhold the higher of two rates: the resident rate where you live, or the non-resident rate where you work. Falls Township's non-resident rate is 1%.

Why a 401(k) saves less tax in Pennsylvania
401(k) contributions lower your federal income tax, but Pennsylvania taxes them: the 3.07% state tax and the local earned income tax still apply to the money you put in. Health premiums taken out under a Section 125 plan do lower both.
