The middle half of workers earned from $47,630 to $76,420 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 PAY BEFORE STATE TAX

$4,097 a month
Federal tax $4,838 · FICA $4,474

State tax is not in this figure. State tax for Connecticut is not included in this figure, because the verified $50,000 and $100,000 hand checks rest on Tables C, D and E, and the full schedules for those tables are not encoded for every salary in this build. Treat this figure as before state tax, not as a final take-home 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.
