For 2024 in the United States, the federal minimum wage is not going up and remains at 7.25 dollars per hour, the same rate it has been since 2009.

However, many states and cities raised their own minimum wages in 2024, so what it “goes up to” depends on where you live. Some examples:

  • Washington, D.C.: 17.50 dollars per hour as of July 1, 2024.
  • Florida: scheduled increase to 13.00 dollars per hour on September 30, 2024.
  • In total, at least 25 states and 60 cities/counties raised their minimum wage at some point in 2024, with many of them reaching 15.00 dollars per hour or more.

If you tell me your state or city, I can narrow it down to the exact 2024 rate for your area.
