Local taxes are not administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue but by local taxing authorities. However, there are resources available on the Department of Community and Economic Development's website where you can obtain more information about local income tax information and local services tax.

Please click on the following link: Find Your Withholding Rates by Address or on DCED wesbite.
