Quick answer

A $100,000 salary in Arizona takes home about $77,074 per year. That works out to roughly $6,423 per month or $2,964 per bi-weekly paycheck for a single filer using the 2026 standard deduction, after federal tax, FICA, and Arizona's flat state income tax, with no pre-tax retirement contributions modeled.

Arizona pairs a low flat state rate with no city wage tax and no state-administered payroll programs. After the 2026 standard deduction, a single filer's taxable income reaches well into the federal 22% bracket on its top slice; the slices below are taxed at 10% and 12% for income above the standard deduction. Arizona's flat state rate (one of the lowest single-rate burdens among states with an income tax) applies uniformly across all income levels. Phoenix has been one of the fastest-growing US metros, absorbing major tech expansion (TSMC north Phoenix fab cluster, Intel Chandler, Microsoft, Honeywell, Banner Health). Tucson, Scottsdale, and Sedona round out the state's economy. Arizona has no State Disability Insurance program and no Arizona city imposes a separate wage tax on employees. The interactive calculator below lets you model filing-status changes, pre-tax deferrals, and other levers. Federal tax of $13,170 and combined FICA of $7,650 round out the payroll-side load alongside the state line where one applies. The combined effective tax rate at this salary works out to 22.93%, with state, federal, and FICA lines stacking before the final take-home line on the pay stub.

What this estimate includes

This estimate covers federal income tax owed at 2026 brackets after the standard deduction, FICA contributions (Social Security at the federal rate up to the annual wage base, Medicare on all wages, plus the Additional Medicare Tax above the filing-status threshold), state income tax computed from the state's bracket schedule, and local income tax where a city or county levies one. It excludes employer-side payroll taxes, custom W-4 withholding elections beyond the standard schedule, supplemental-wage handling for bonuses or equity vesting, and income from sources other than W-2 wages. The bi-weekly take-home figure assumes a 26-paycheck schedule.
