About EasyPayCalc

EasyPayCalc exists to answer one question clearly: after taxes, how much of my salary do I actually keep? The gap between a headline salary and real take-home pay is large and confusing — and it changes dramatically depending on which state you live in.

What we do

We build a focused, accurate take-home pay calculator for each U.S. state. Enter a salary or hourly wage and you instantly see your net pay per paycheck and per year, with a full breakdown of federal income tax, Social Security, Medicare, and your state’s taxes.

Why state-by-state

Federal taxes are the same everywhere, but state income tax ranges from nothing at all to more than 10%. A dedicated page for each state lets us show the exact rules that apply to you — including local quirks like city income taxes or state disability insurance.

Fast, free, and private

Every calculator is free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser, so the figures you enter never leave your device. The site is built to load in well under a couple of seconds, even on mobile.

A note on accuracy

We work hard to keep our tax tables current, but our results are estimates for educational purposes and are not professional tax advice. See our Terms for details.
