American households spent an average of $10,489 on local, state, and federal taxes last year.
They spent $7,203 on food and $1,803 on clothing in 2016.
The average tax bill increased from $7,423 in 2013 to $10,489 in 2016.
The only household expense higher than taxes last year was housing, which averaged $18,886. That figure includes mortgage and rent payments, utilities, and other related costs.
