What this pays, and what it is worth
- New Hampshire is one of the better-paying states for phlebotomists. The middle earner takes $48,660, which ranks 7 of 51 states with published figures. That is about 7.58% above the national middle.
- Ordinary, locally speaking. Phlebotomists ranks 361 among 488 occupations New Hampshire publishes pay for.
- New Hampshire is an expensive state, and the adjusted figure shows it. From $48,660 the take-home is $41,278; in national-average money that behaves like $39,184. The average comes to $49,330, above the middle, thanks to the top of the range.
- New Hampshire ranks 7 of 51 states publishing a median for phlebotomists, at $48,660 — about 7.58% 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 361 of 488 in New Hampshire places phlebotomists 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.
- Take-home for phlebotomists in New Hampshire, on $48,660, is $41,278; deflated by the state's price level, $39,184. ⚠️ The deflator is statewide, so it understates the erosion in the state's metropolitan areas and overstates it outside them. At $49,330 the mean overshoots the median — the usual right-skewed shape.

Sources and assumptions
- A median is the middle, not an offer. Half of phlebotomists in New Hampshire earn under $48,660 and half over. The published range runs $40,640 at the tenth percentile to $58,780 at the ninetieth. Experience and employer move an individual a long way inside that.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind New Hampshire's $41,278, worked from $48,660. That is on purpose. It lets states be compared with each other, not with each other's family circumstances. Local city taxes are left out. Locally this work ranks 361 of 488.
- Two cautions on $39,184, the adjusted value of that $48,660 median. It levels out prices with a single number for all of New Hampshire. No actual address matches that. The wage figures and price figures are also from different years. Each is published on its own timetable. This work sits at 361 of 488 locally.
- Figures are distribution medians for phlebotomists in New Hampshire, not entry or offer rates. The published band runs $40,640 to $58,780; 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.
- The New Hampshire take-home of $41,278, on $48,660 for work ranking 361 of 488 locally, models the simplest household deliberately: holding it constant is what makes the interstate comparison meaningful. It also means the absolute figure overstates liability for most real filers, and municipal income taxes are outside the model entirely. The occupation ranks 361 of 488 in the state.
- This $39,184 adjusted figure, worked from $48,660, rests on a state-level price parity averaging over within-state dispersion larger than much of the between-state dispersion. Wage and price vintages differ by publication schedule. The result is directionally sound and not address-specific, for work at 361 of 488 in the state. The occupation ranks 361 of 488 locally.
Questions people ask
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
Most of these jobs pay within a close range — $40,640 at the tenth percentile, $58,780 at the ninetieth.
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 $39,184 — the wage did not change, only what it covers.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Most of it arrives. $41,278 lands after tax, since there is no state income tax on wages here — though the federal floor is identical in every state.
Can I compare this job across every state?
This occupation is published everywhere — all 51 of them — so comparing states measures real differences rather than gaps in the data.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($40,640 to $58,780) 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 $39,184 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 $41,278 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.
Is this occupation's state coverage complete?
State-level estimates are published for all 51 jurisdictions for this occupation, so cross-state comparison is not confounded by suppression. ⚠️ Estimates remain survey-based and carry sampling error; small differences between adjacent states should not be over-read.
