Medical Secretaries and Administrative Assistants salary in North Dakota

I would start with the middle, not the top of the range. For medical secretaries and administrative assistants in North Dakota, that middle figure was $45,390 a year. It gives you a steadier base for rent, bills and savings plans than a headline salary that only a small share of workers actually reach.

The middle half of workers earned from $39,430 to $50,210 a year. Do not read the percentile range as good versus bad jobs. It mostly reflects experience, hours, employer type and local demand. A new starter near the 25th percentile and a veteran near the 75th can both be fairly paid for their stage.

Caveat: the 2026 Form ND-1ES bracket text was retrieved via a TaxFormFinder reproduction, not a direct tax.nd.gov PDF.

Read this before you use the take-home figure. It is a single-filer estimate using the 2026 standard deduction. It leaves out credits, other deductions, local taxes, and retirement or health deductions. Your actual paycheck can differ, and for states without a verified 2026 table in this build, state tax is still to be added once its table is verified.
