Is it normal if the amount of "state wages"in box 16 is the same than "local wages" in box 18?

If you only worked in one locality within the state then, yes, local and state wages would be the same.  Local wages are that portion of state wages earned in that locality.  So, if all your state wages were earned in one place, they'd be the same.  It doesn't double your wages.
