What this pays, and what it is worth
- Pay for this job is strong here. New Hampshire's middle earner gets $60,570, putting the state 2 of 50 — about 26.69% ahead of the national figure.
- Middle of the local pack. Of 488 occupations New Hampshire reports figures for, this is number 260.
- The wage here flatters the reality. From $60,570 the take-home is $50,848. But New Hampshire costs more than the national average, so that money behaves more like $48,268 would elsewhere. Worth knowing before comparing offers across states. The average is lower, $55,720, so pay clusters nearer the top than usual.
- For computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers, New Hampshire sits in the upper band nationally: a median of $60,570, ranking 2 of 50 and running about 26.69% above the national midpoint. Nominal advantage of this size is usually, though not always, large enough to survive the state's own tax and price levels.
- In New Hampshire's occupational distribution, computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers sits at 260 of 488 — neither quartile. This local position is what a resident compares against, and it is determined by the state's own labor market rather than by national patterns for this occupation.
- Retained pay after federal, FICA and New Hampshire income tax is $50,848 for computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers, from $60,570. The state's price level exceeds the national average, so the price-adjusted equivalent is $48,268. ⚠️ This is purchasing power and not a wage; cross-state offer comparisons that stop at the nominal figure systematically overvalue high-cost states. The mean of $55,720 falls below the median, a left skew that is uncommon in wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- A median is the middle, not an offer. Half of computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers in New Hampshire earn under $60,570 and half over. The published range runs $38,380 at the tenth percentile to $64,780 at the ninetieth. Experience and employer move an individual a long way inside that.
- In New Hampshire the take-home figure of $50,848, from $60,570, assumes one filer, no dependants, and nothing paid into a pension before tax. Each of those lowers the bill, so treat it as the plain case. City and school-district income taxes are not included either, and in a few states those are real money. It ranks 260 of 488 occupations here.
- The wage data and the price data come from different years. That is how each is published. The price adjustment behind $48,268 uses one figure for the whole of New Hampshire. A city and a rural county there can differ by more than two states do. Out of 488 occupations the state publishes, this one sits at 260.
- Figures are distribution medians for computer, automated teller, and office machine repairers in New Hampshire, not entry or offer rates. The published band runs $38,380 to $64,780; within-state dispersion of that width routinely exceeds the dispersion between states, so tenure, employer and metropolitan area predict an individual's pay better than geography does.
- Take-home for New Hampshire is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $50,848 from $60,570. Each omitted item reduces taxable income, so the figure is a lower bound on retained pay for this household shape. Municipal and school-district income taxes are excluded, which understates the burden materially in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Maryland. The occupation ranks 260 of 488 locally.
- Wage and price series carry different reference periods, each published on its own schedule. The real-terms figure of $48,268, worked from $60,570, deflates by a statewide parity that conceals substantial intra-state variation, concentrated in housing — so it supports comparison between states rather than the pricing of a move to a particular New Hampshire address, on work sitting at 260 of 488 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
No — it is the middle. Half of these workers earn more and half earn less. The average is $55,720, pulled upward by the top of the range, which is why the middle is the fairer number to plan against.
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
Less than you might expect. The bottom tenth earn $38,380 and the top tenth $64,780, so most people doing this work in New Hampshire sit within a fairly tight band.
Does a bigger number here mean I am better off?
Not on its own. Prices in New Hampshire run above the national level, so the same dollars buy less here. Adjusted for that, this pay is worth $48,268 — the wage did not change, only what it covers.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Less than people assume. $50,848 of this wage reaches your account, because New Hampshire takes no income tax from wages — but federal tax, Social Security and Medicare still apply exactly as they do everywhere else.
Why is this job missing from some states?
Because the survey suppresses a figure when too few employers report it. This occupation has published pay in 50 states — the rest are withheld to protect confidentiality, which is not the same as nobody doing the work there.
How does the published median differ from the mean for this occupation?
The median is the midpoint of the distribution; the mean for this occupation in New Hampshire is $55,720. Wage distributions are right-skewed, so the mean exceeds the median wherever a minority earn substantially more. BLS publishes both because substituting one for the other misstates a typical worker's pay.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($38,380 to $64,780) sits at or below the family's median dispersion, indicating relatively standardized compensation. Percentiles are published per state, so this dispersion is specific to New Hampshire rather than a national figure.
How does the state price level affect real compensation?
New Hampshire's regional price parity sits above the national average, so nominal wages overstate purchasing power. Deflating take-home by the state price level gives $48,268 in national-average terms. ⚠️ RPPs are an all-items index; housing parities vary far more widely than the headline figure.
Why is the take-home ratio comparatively high in this state?
New Hampshire levies no personal income tax on wages, so take-home of $50,848 reflects the federal layer and FICA alone. Federal income tax and FICA are unchanged; states without a wage income tax generally recover revenue through consumption and property bases instead.
Why does this occupation lack published estimates in every state?
BLS suppresses estimates failing disclosure or reliability criteria. This occupation has published state-level estimates in 50 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
