The most "harassed" IRPEF taxpayers in Italy are residents in the metropolitan city of Milan, while the least "harassed" are in Sardinia.

In 2002, says the CGIA Research Office, the people of Milan paid the treasury an average tax on the income of natural persons amounting to 8,527 euros, followed by the Irpef subjects of Rome with 7,092, of Monza-Brianza with 6,574, of Bolzano with 6,472 and Bologna with 6,323.

At the bottom of the ranking are the residents of Southern Sardinia. Also in 2022, the average Irpef paid to the tax authorities in the Sardinian province by each individual taxpayer was equal to 3,338 euros.

The national average figure, however, stood at 5,381 euros and in 2022 the state coffers received 174.2 billion euros in net income tax.

The percentage of taxpayers who paid less than the national average - again according to the survey - stood at 69 percent. This means that in Italy almost 7 out of 10 IRPEF taxpayers pay less than 5,381 euros per year to the tax authorities. The area with the lowest percentage, equal to 60 percent, is the Autonomous Province of Bolzano. Followed by Lazio with 63 percent, Lombardy with 64 percent, Valle d'Aosta with 66 percent and Emilia Romagna and Liguria both with 67 percent. Among the regions, however, where the rate of less well-off taxpayers is significantly higher, there is Calabria, where 78 percent of taxpayers pay less than the national average, the autonomous province of Trento with 80 percent and the Marche with '84 percent.
