New Hampshire never taxed wages, and repealed its interest and dividends tax effective January 1, 2025. Wage income therefore carries no state tax at all.
What the median earner keeps in New Hampshire
Median earnings in New Hampshire are about $52,029 for people with earnings, and median household income is $99,782. A single filer earning that amount takes home roughly $3,665 a month, an effective rate of 15.5% once federal, FICA and state taxes are applied.
Earnings and income are 2024 ACS one-year estimates covering everyone with earnings, so part-time and part-year workers pull this median below a full-time salary. State tax figures come from the state revenue department.
Common questions about New Hampshire paychecks
Does New Hampshire tax wage income?
No. New Hampshire does not tax wage income, so a paycheck only meets federal income tax and FICA. The state still raises revenue through other taxes, so a high take-home figure here is not the same as a tax-free paycheck.
What is the standard deduction in New Hampshire?
New Hampshire offers no standard deduction against wage income, so state tax starts from the first taxable dollar unless a personal exemption reduces the base.
Are there local taxes on top of New Hampshire state tax?
No city-level income tax applies to wages in New Hampshire.
