Assuming you are single with $250,000 capital gains, some of the gain will be taxed at 15% and some at 20%.  But the gain may also adjust the taxability of your social security.

 

Most states don't have a preferential capital gains rate and your gain will be taxed as ordinary income.  State taxes range from 3% to 13% depending on the state.
