One problem with SPAXX (which I realized when doing my state taxes last week) is that the monthly dividends it pays aren't exempt from state income tax. I expected that they would be, since SPAXX invests in federal-level government bonds, but they aren't.

You probably need to buy bonds issued by your state, although that may increase risk
Treasuries are exempt from state taxes, at least when held directly
