How much does $30,000 come out to per paycheck after New York State taxes and federal taxes??

Question

I've been offered a job on this salary and want to create a budget accordingly.

Answer 1

When you find a place to live in NY (whether its the City or a surrounding burrough) for less than 30K, let me know, so I can pack my bags.  Unless you are living at home, I don't see how its possible.  I couldn't even live on that.

Answer 2

As a general rule, I always figure 70% of my gross pay will be take home.  In your case, that would be 21,000 which would break down to about $400 a week.

Of course, this works here in Michigan but it may not there.

Answer 3

After all of the taxes deducted? Probably about $1.75.
