States bear wildly different estimated tariff burdens from President Trump's trade actions since the start of 2025, from California's $62.8 billion share to Wyoming's $107 million.
**Why it matters:** Local industries dictate how and how hard communities have been hit, from Michigan's auto industry to Virginia's aerospace sector.
**By the numbers:**California has absorbed the biggest chunk of the overall $342 billion estimated tab, according to National Taxpayers Union Foundation data.
* Michigan's $23.2 billion tab is smaller, but amounts to an estimated equivalent of $5,619 per household, the highest in the nation.
**Zoom in:** The primary industries driving states' tariff costs offer a glimpse into local economies.
* Vehicles dominate tariffs in Michigan, while auto parts lead in neighboring Indiana and Ohio.
* Toys and games were the leading tariff target in Minnesota, home to Target and several game companies.
* In Florida, food — think imported winter produce — is the biggest tariff-hit category.
**Yes, but:** The Supreme Court struck down Trump's sweeping emergency-power tariffs in February, and importers are now seeking refunds for billions of dollars in duties already paid.
* The data reflect tariffs collected through June 2026, including some costs that could ultimately be refunded, even as the administration explores alternative tariff approaches.
**The fine print:** Axios analyzed state tariff estimates from Trade Partnership Worldwide, compiled by the National Taxpayers Union Foundation. Per-household equivalents use Census Bureau American Community Survey data.
**The bottom line:** Trump's tariffs are international. Their economic impact is local.
