Summary
June 2017 -- The IRS "Statistics of Income" dataset has added new variables across all subnational sections (2,569,268 new annual series from 2014).
Detail

The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Statistics of Income (SOI) division (about) reports on the performance of individual and corporate income tax collection through statistical products including the Tax Stats tabulations. The SOI undergoes structural changes annually. Its table 1.4 breaks out sources of income, adjustments, deductions and exemptions, and tax items, whereas state, county and ZIP Code tables pertains to individual income and tax data, by state and size of adjusted gross income.

Figures are thousands of dollars (Ths. USD) or number of returns (#). Geo coverage is the U.S., states, counties and ZIP Code areas. The new series start at 2014. In the 2017 update, there are 14 new measures:
