I'd roughly pay 11.5% (based on estimated earnings). I pay 7.3% to PA and the City of Philadelphia. But the cost of living in Delaware is roughly 10-25% lower than Philadelphia, and no sales tax...it seems to be a fair trade off.
We'll see...we have a year to plan, and various factors to consider.

Of course, I live in PA about 300 feet north of the Delaware border and I stopped working officially (ie not in a consulting capacity) in Philadelphia 5 years ago. My work and home township each have a 1% wage tax but with reciprocity I only have to pay one of them.
