States have to build highways, regional sewage treatment plants, and other projects. In addition, states often guarantee the bonds of their public universities, so the colleges can borrow at a much lower rate. Interest on some state bonds is exempt from state and federal taxes. When buying state bonds, ask if a particular bond issue is exempt from federal and/or state income taxes.
