The middle half of workers earned from $41,960 to $81,960 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.

Caveat: the annual 2026 MO-1040 instruction booklet was not retrieved. Brackets and standard deduction are in the official 2026 withholding formula, and the federal tax deduction schedule is in statute RSMo 143.171.

Kansas City and St. Louis 1 percent earnings taxes 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.
