What is the difference between a 457b and 403b?

There are two different types of 457 plans—the 457(b), which is offered to state and local government employees, and the 457(f) is for top executives in nonprofits. A 403(b) plan is typically offered to employees of private nonprofits and government workers, including public school employees.
