What New York costs you versus Texas
Moving does not change your federal tax, so the state comparison is clean: the same $75,000 salary for a single filer leaves $58,140 in New York and $61,593 in Texas. That is $3,453 a year — $288 a month — in favor of New York.
Nine states — Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming — charge nothing on wages, which is why they dominate "best state for take-home pay" lists.

New York paycheck FAQ
How much is $60,000 a year after taxes in New York?

Does New York tax 401(k) contributions?
Most states follow the federal treatment: traditional 401(k) deferrals are excluded from state taxable wages, so contributing lowers state tax as well as federal tax. A few states, including Pennsylvania and Colorado, treat some deferrals differently, so check your state's instructions if you contribute heavily. This calculator applies the federal exclusion everywhere.
