Pennsylvania Take-Home
Take-home pay in Pennsylvania: what makes it different
A Pennsylvania paycheck loses federal income tax, Social Security (6.2%), Medicare (1.45%) and a flat 3.07% state income tax, the lowest flat rate in the country, applied to every dollar with no brackets or standard deduction. Most municipalities add a local earned income tax around 1%, and Philadelphia withholds about 3.75% from residents instead. A single filer earning $65,000 takes home about $52,100 a year (80%) before local tax. Enter any gross salary for the exact breakdown.
