What this pays, and what it is worth
- New Hampshire is one of the better-paying states for this job. The middle earner takes $59,730, which ranks 5 of 48 states with published figures. That is about 17.83% above the national middle.
- Ordinary, locally speaking. This job ranks 272 among 488 occupations New Hampshire publishes pay for.
- Costs eat into it here. Of $59,730, tax leaves $50,173 — and because New Hampshire is dearer than average, that stretches only as far as $47,627 would nationally. Averages run higher here, $61,070, since top earners drag the number up.
- New Hampshire ranks 5 of 48 states publishing a median for computer numerically controlled tool operators, at $59,730 — about 17.83% above the national median. A state's position on nominal pay is the figure wage tables report and the least informative of the three on this page, because it survives neither the tax adjustment nor the price adjustment intact for most occupations.
- Position 272 of 488 in New Hampshire places computer numerically controlled tool operators in the middle of the state's wage distribution. Because within-state and cross-state rankings measure different things, this figure and the national one above should be read together rather than as a single verdict.
- After tax, $50,173 remains from the New Hampshire median of $59,730 for this occupation. Applying the state's above-average price parity yields $47,627 in national-average terms — the quantity relevant to a relocation decision, and the one absent from essentially every published wage comparison. Mean pay of $61,070 exceeds the median, so the upper tail is doing the work.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $59,730 as a midpoint for New Hampshire, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $46,750 and the ninetieth is $80,280 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- That $50,173 take-home in New Hampshire comes from $59,730. It is the no-frills case: single filer, standard deduction, nothing set aside before tax. Real circumstances almost always reduce the tax. City and school-district taxes are not counted at all. Locally the work ranks 272 of 488.
- One number stands for prices across all of New Hampshire, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $47,627, the adjusted value of that $59,730 median, as a way to compare states fairly, not as a quote for any particular place. The two datasets are also from different years. This job sits at 272 of 488 in the state.
- The New Hampshire median of $59,730 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $46,750 to $80,280. Because that spread is typically larger than the interstate spread, a state median is a weak predictor for any individual worker in this occupation.
- Retained pay of $50,173, from $59,730, assumes a single New Hampshire filer with the standard deduction and no elective deferrals. Pre-tax retirement or HSA contributions, dependants and itemized deductions all reduce it further; local income taxes, excluded here, would increase it in the states that levy them. This occupation ranks 272 of 488 locally, and the state ranks 5 of 48 for it.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for New Hampshire, so $47,627 — the adjusted value of that $59,730 median — establishes comparability between states rather than accuracy within one. The wage and parity series are dated independently, each following its own publication cycle, and neither is projected forward. This occupation sits at 272 of 488 locally.
Questions people ask
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
The range here is narrow. From $46,750 at the bottom tenth to $80,280 at the top, pay for this work clusters rather than spreads.
Does a bigger number here mean I am better off?
A larger wage in a dearer place is not automatically more. Adjusted for local prices, this pay behaves like $47,627 of national purchasing power.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Less than people assume. $50,173 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?
The survey withholds small samples rather than publish an unreliable number. Pay appears for 48 states here, and a missing state means too few reports, not no jobs.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($46,750 to $80,280) 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 $47,627 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 $50,173 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 48 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
