Paycheck Calculators by State
Pick your state for a 2026 take-home pay estimate with worked examples and the official source behind every rate. States fall into three groups by how they tax wages.

These states levy no tax on wages — your paycheck is reduced only by federal income tax and FICA.
Flat-rate states (14)
A single rate applies to all taxable income, regardless of how much you earn.
Progressive states (27)
Marginal brackets — higher slices of income are taxed at higher rates. The badge shows each state's top rate.
