The middle half of workers earned from $54,020 to $99,130 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.

What stays in your pocket on the median salary

ESTIMATED TAKE-HOME PAY

$60,755 a year
$5,063 a month
Federal tax $8,576 · FICA $6,053 · State tax $3,736

Caveat: the Massachusetts figure excludes the optional Social Security and Medicare deduction, worth up to $100 of tax.

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.
