The middle half of workers earned from $36,150 to $45,450 a year. Employment size matters too. A field with many workers in a state usually means more openings and more room to move employers without moving states. A small field can pay well but offer fewer ways in.

ESTIMATED TAKE-HOME PAY

$31,753 a year
$2,646 a month
Federal tax $2,459 · FICA $2,957 · State tax $1,491

New York City resident tax and the Yonkers surcharge are separate and are not in this figure.

Read this before you use the take-home figure. It is a single-filer estimate using the 2026 standard deduction. It leaves out credits, other deductions, local taxes, and retirement or health deductions. Your actual paycheck can differ, and for states without a verified 2026 table in this build, state tax is still to be added once its table is verified.
