*Texas levies no personal income tax on wages. Assumes standard 40 hours per week and 52 weeks per year (2,080 annual hours) for a single filer in tax year 2026 using the IRS standard deduction ($16,100).

How the calculation works

Two steps, because Texas stops at step two:

  1. Gross = hourly × hours × weeks.
  2. Net estimate = gross − federal income tax − FICA (6.2% Social Security up to the wage base + 1.45% Medicare). State income tax: $0.

Frequently asked questions

Does Texas have state income tax?

No. Texas levies no personal income tax on wages, so your only paycheck deductions are federal income tax, Social Security, and Medicare (plus any benefits you elect).

Is $25 an hour good pay in Texas?

$25/hour is about $52,000 a year full time. After federal taxes that is roughly $43,900 in take-home - and Texas cities like Austin remain cheaper than coastal metros where the same wage nets less after state tax.

Are these numbers exact?

They are close estimates built from official published figures (IRS TY2026 federal; latest published state schedules), modeled for a single filer with standard deduction and no dependents or pre-tax benefits. Real paychecks vary with W-4 elections and benefit deductions.
