I didn't notice this until it's too late to edit. I made two mistakes:

First, Seattle's tax rate is 9.25 cents per $1,000, not 9.9 cents.

Second, I made a display error. The rate is not 9.9%; that would be very high. It is 0.925% (just under 1%).

I live in the city and actually didn't know that, good to know.
