San Leandro sets its own minimum wage, but its most recent published rate ($15.00 from July 1, 2020) is below the statewide rate. Employers pay whichever is higher, so the state rate applies until San Leandro publishes a new one.

Sales tax

7.25% statewide base rate

In effect since January 1, 2017

Most California cities add district taxes on top of the base rate, so the combined rate in San Leandro is likely higher. We're adding it from the state tax agency's rate file.
