Etymology

The term 'nonresident' derives from the prefix 'non-', indicating absence or negation, combined with 'resident', which comes from the Latin 'residens', meaning 'to sit back, remain, or settle.' The use of 'nonresident' in legal and tax contexts emerged in the late 19th century as economies became more interconnected and individuals began moving across borders for work and residence. The clear delineation of residency for tax purposes became essential for governments to ensure proper taxation and regulation of individuals who may not contribute to local services despite benefiting from them. Hence, 'nonresident' has firmly established itself in legal vernacular as a crucial category for identifying individuals who maintain connections to one place while living in another.
