  • 30% rent rule: spend no more than 30% of gross monthly pay on rent, which is about $2,750 a month.

How we calculate

  1. Yearly pay = hourly wage × 40 hours × 52 weeks (2,080 hours). Hourly = yearly ÷ 2,080.
  2. Monthly = yearly ÷ 12; biweekly = yearly ÷ 26; weekly = yearly ÷ 52.
  3. Federal income tax uses the 2026 IRS brackets and standard deduction (IRS Rev. Proc. 2025-32).
  4. Social Security is 6.2% up to $184,500; Medicare is 1.45% (plus 0.9% above $200,000).
  5. State tax uses each state's published rates and deductions. See our methodology and sources.
