If there is a dollar amount in Box 19, Local Income Tax, TurboTax will expect there to be an amount in Box 18, Local wages, tips, etc. There should also be an entry in Box 20, Locality name. If your employer left Box 18 blank, and all of your income was earned in the same locality, then the amount from Box 1 / Box 16 would normally be repeated in Box 18. If you have a question as to how your Local Income Tax was determined, ask your employer or payroll office. If there is an error, they may need to issue you a corrected W-2.
If you have local taxes, you may have wages that are taxable by more than one locality (such as a city or school district). You can add another line for Boxes 18 through 20 by clicking the "+Add another locality" button that appears below Boxes 18 through 20.
See this TurboTax tips article for more information about Form W-2.
