What this pays, and what it is worth
- New Hampshire is one of the better-paying states for radiation therapists. The middle earner takes $106,270, which ranks 15 of 46 states with published figures. That is about 0.91% above the national middle.
- This is one of the better-paid jobs in New Hampshire. It ranks 50 out of 488 occupations the state publishes figures for, which puts it in the top quarter locally.
- Costs eat into it here. Of $106,270, tax leaves $83,591 — and because New Hampshire is dearer than average, that stretches only as far as $79,350 would nationally. Here the average runs under the middle, at $102,230.
- New Hampshire ranks 15 of 46 states publishing a median for radiation therapists, at $106,270 — about 0.91% 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.
- Within New Hampshire, radiation therapists ranks 50 of 488 occupations by median pay, placing it in the top quartile of the local distribution. This is the comparison a resident actually makes — against neighbors rather than against the same job elsewhere.
- After tax, $83,591 remains from the New Hampshire median of $106,270 for this occupation. Applying the state's above-average price parity yields $79,350 in national-average terms — the quantity relevant to a relocation decision, and the one absent from essentially every published wage comparison. Mean pay of $102,230 sits under the median, so the lower tail is the longer one.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $106,270 as a midpoint for New Hampshire, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $83,310 and the ninetieth is $123,900 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind New Hampshire's $83,591, worked from $106,270. 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 50 of 488.
- Two cautions on $79,350, the adjusted value of that $106,270 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 50 of 488 locally.
- The New Hampshire median of $106,270 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $83,310 to $123,900. Because that spread is typically larger than the interstate spread, a state median is a weak predictor for any individual worker in this occupation.
- The New Hampshire take-home of $83,591, on $106,270 for work ranking 50 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 50 of 488 in the state.
- This $79,350 adjusted figure, worked from $106,270, 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 50 of 488 in the state. The occupation ranks 50 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 $102,230, 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?
The range here is narrow. From $83,310 at the bottom tenth to $123,900 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 $79,350 of national purchasing power.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Most of it arrives. $83,591 lands after tax, since there is no state income tax on wages here — though the federal floor is identical in every state.
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 46 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 $102,230. 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 ($83,310 to $123,900) 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 $79,350 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 $83,591 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 46 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
