Social Worker Pay & Work-Life Balance by State

Median advertised pay and work-life-balance score across 51 states with enough social worker listings to measure. Based on our own postings from the last 12 months — not a salary survey. Medians blend permanent salaries with annualized locums/contract rates. Take-home figures deduct state income tax (Tax Foundation 2025) and adjust for local cost of living (BEA Regional Price Parities 2024); federal tax is uniform across states and omitted.
