    Tax rates vary wildly in every location. While the US has a federal tax, each state has its own tax rate, and often, many counties and cities will as well. This question cannot be answered with a single number, as you will need to do your research on where in the US you're talking about.

    Also, the cost of living in each locale will play a large role in the VALUE of that $4,000. $4,000/month will buy more in Michigan than in New York state or California, for example.

    You would probably need a yearly salary of around $55,000 to $60,000 in most locations.But, there are a lot of factors including local and state tax rates, health insurance costs, 401k with holdings, and the number of dependents you claim (you can claim as many as you want even though you're single, but then you settle up the difference on your tax return).
