New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani<\/a> is set to earn nearly $260,000 a year, in line with the salary paid to his predecessor.<\/p>\n

The figure is based on public payroll records showing that former Mayor Eric Adams<\/a> earned $258,750 in total pay.<\/p>\n

Mamdani previously earned about $142,000 as a state assemblyman, according to<\/u><\/a> Ballotpedia, an increase of roughly 80%.<\/p>\n

Mamdani\u2019s office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital\u2019s request for comment on whether he plans to accept the full salary or donate a portion of it.<\/p>\n

NEW YORK CITY IS ABOUT TO TEST MAMDANI\u2019S PROGRESSIVE ECONOMIC VISION<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

New York City consistently ranks among the most expensive cities in the country, with housing costs<\/a> far above the national average.<\/p>\n

An annual salary of about $260,000 would place Mamdani among the city\u2019s top earners, more than three times New York City\u2019s median household income of roughly $80,000, according to the most recent<\/u><\/a> Census Bureau data.<\/p>\n

Mamdani posted on his Instagram account in December that he and his wife Rama would move from their home<\/a> in Astoria, Queens, to Gracie Mansion, the official, rent-free residence of the mayor on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, in January.<\/p>\n

MAMDANI DISPUTES ANTISEMITISM DEFINITION AMID BLOWBACK FROM JEWISH COMMUNITY ABOUT DAY 1 EXECUTIVE ORDERS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“This decision came down to our family\u2019s safety and the importance of dedicating all of my focus on enacting the affordability agenda<\/a> New Yorkers voted for,” he wrote.<\/p>\n

Mamdani was sworn in Jan.<\/a> 1 as the 112th mayor of New York City, becoming the first Muslim to hold the office.<\/p>\n

“City Hall will deliver an agenda of safety, affordability, and abundance\u2014where government looks and lives like the people it represents, never flinches in the fight against corporate greed, and refuses to cower before challenges that others have deemed too complicated,” Mamdani said<\/u><\/a> in his inaugural address.<\/p>\n

“In so doing, we will provide our own answer to that age-old question\u2014who does New York belong to? Well, my friends, we can look to Madiba and the South African Freedom Charter: New York \u2018belongs to all who live in it.\u2019”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
