The middle half of workers earned from $29,240 to $37,230 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

$29,033 a year
$2,419 a month
Federal tax $1,960 · FICA $2,639 · State tax $868

Caveat: the North Carolina rate is from NCDOR, but the $12,750 deduction comes from the statute text, not an NCDOR deduction page.

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.
