Which state lets you keep the most of a $175k salary?
Alaska and the other states that don't tax wages leave the most — about $130,879 take-home. Among states with an income tax, the gap to Oregon is about $15,280 a year on this salary.
Is take-home pay higher if I'm married?
On the same $175,000 as the only household income, a married couple filing jointly takes home about $140,773 federally — $9,894 more than a single filer — because the joint standard deduction and brackets are twice as wide.
