Live calculators are linked; the rest are on the way — we build the highest-traffic states first.
States with no income tax
Nine states don't tax wage income, so your state line is simpler — just federal tax and FICA: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, Wyoming. (New Hampshire taxes some investment income but not wages.)
Cities
City-level paychecks where local rules matter.
How state paycheck math works
Your take-home pay starts with gross pay, then subtracts federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare (FICA), and — in most states — state income tax. Pre-tax items like a traditional 401(k) or health premiums lower the wages that get taxed. States handle income tax three ways: some don't tax wages at all, some charge a single flat rate, and others use progressive brackets that rise with income. Each state calculator applies the right method for that state.
