Quick answer

A $100,000 salary in Minnesota takes home about $73,493 per year. That works out to roughly $6,124 per month or $2,827 per bi-weekly paycheck for a single filer using the 2026 standard deduction, after federal tax, FICA, and Minnesota's progressive state income tax plus Minnesota PFML, with no pre-tax retirement contributions modeled.

Minnesota pairs a higher-burden progressive state schedule with the wired PFML employee contribution. The federal 22% marginal bracket applies to a significant portion of taxable income for a single filer at this salary, sitting above the 12% bracket threshold after the 2026 standard deduction. Minnesota's progressive structure reaches one of the higher top rates in the country at 9.85%. The Twin Cities anchor Minnesota's economy with a deep medical-and-finance cluster (Mayo Clinic, UnitedHealth Group, US Bank, Target headquarters, 3M, General Mills, Cargill, Best Buy). Minnesota wires PFML as a small per-paycheck employee contribution. No Minnesota city imposes a 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 26.51%, with state, federal, and FICA lines stacking before the final take-home line on the pay stub.

The bi-weekly take-home figure assumes a 26-paycheck schedule.
