32. Pennsylvania

  • Median household income/paycheck: $2,111.35
  • The leftover income after covering monthly expenses: $859.94
  • Percentage of leftover income: 40.73 percent

Thankfully, the Keystone State residents have low living expenses, especially when we think about other East Coast states. Plus, the median household income is pretty high, too. So, Pennsylvania residents are less likely to live paycheck to paycheck than other U.S. citizens.

31. Delaware

  • Median household income/paycheck: $2,346.81
  • The leftover income after covering monthly expenses: $970.70
  • Percentage of leftover income: 41.36 percent

The First State residents benefit from a pretty high median household income and, on top of that, they don’t pay that much when it comes to living costs (at least not when we compare them with other residents). Therefore, Delaware residents are left with a big chunk of money after covering expenses.
