Take-Home (Net) Pay of Intern Year

[ussdfiant]

My wife and I are budgeting for next year. How much do interns take home after taxes, deductions, etc.? I'm curious about this in general, regardless of location (although including your location and specialty would be helpful to know- -I'm applying for Internal Medicine). Thanks.

My income this year is about $2550 a month after taxes in North Carolina.

Check out this site:

To estimate your take home. This lets you estimate based on your own monthly deductions and your state's tax rates.

www.paycheckcity.com has a pretty good take-home pay calculator.

It all depends on your exemptions. Visit that website to get a good estimate.

I make around $2500 a month, after deductions and taxes, here in Atlanta.

~39k gross per annum in chicago before taxes/withholding/etc.

ballpark around 2400/month after all is said and done.

Second question. Is it possible for one who is married with a 1 year old to live in Atlanta and NC..with that salary? Thanks.

Ya exactly $1265 every 2 weeks for me.
As far as living w/ a child, I would say of course. Now you have to live somewhere w/ a resonable rent/morage. For example,

~$2500/month
-$800 in rent (I know ATL could be more expensive?)
-$200 for utilities(electricity, gas, phone...)
-$150 gas
so far $1350 left
-$250 for food
-$50 cell phone
down to $1050
-$120 car insurance
to $930
- $150 (childs expenses, I guessing here)
to $780
-$200 general entertainment
to $580
so I mean you still have room to go up on rent and add other stuff

I make about $3500 a month in Pittsburgh, in family practice.

Edit: that is before taxes...$2600 after taxes.

in NC, definitely. i don't know anything abt atlanta.

you can rent a very nice condo for about 800-1000 a month. . .i'm assuming your wife either doesn't work, or if she works it'll be enough to cover the cost of childcare. . .so for living expenses & bills alone, your salary should be just fine. i mean, obviously you'll have to budget, especially depending on your car payments, etc. . . but in any case, you shouldn't be hurting to live here.

NC is a good state. in both of the metropolitan areas (raleigh/durham/CH) and charlotte, there are lots of young people, young professionals, young families.

Atlanta is cheap (compared to other major cities). 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartments in great areas of town will run between $700-$1000. If you're looking to buy, you can get great 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condos or houses in good locations for under $200k.

I've lived in Atlanta and NYC. Atlanta... no problem.... NYC....no way. 🙂 But Atlanta is pretty hectic and crowded. I would go with Raleigh NC or somewhere like that instead.

Well, yeah, true. 🙂

Wait, you make $4500 a month after taxes? What year resident/fellow are you?

oops, that's an error. I meant to write $1246, not $2246 . . . wishful thinking. haha
