there is Gross Income (Ie: before taxes are taken out) and your Adjusted Gross Income (ie: after taxes - your 'takehome'). Your takehome depends on a lot of things. Tax codes and regulations differ state by state and also sometimes by the locality where you work.
If you want to get a generalized figure for someone earning 90k a good estimate would be to take about 23% of that and subtract it immediately. That would ROUGHLY be your 'takehome'. That 23% is a high-end figure for federal withholdings (SS, medicare, state tax) - but again it will differ by state and locality.
