About May 2018
National, State, Metropolitan, and Nonmetropolitan Area Occupational
Employment and Wage Estimates
These estimates are calculated with data collected from employers in
all industry sectors, all metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas, and all
states and the District of Columbia. The top employment and wage figures
are provided above. The complete list is available in the downloadable
XLS files.
The percentile wage estimate is the value of a wage below which a
certain percent of workers fall. The median wage is the 50th percentile
wage estimate--50 percent of workers earn less than the median and 50
percent of workers earn more than the median. More
about percentile wages.
(1) Estimates for detailed occupations do not sum to the
totals because the totals include occupations not shown separately.
Estimates do not include self-employed workers.
(2) Annual wages have been calculated by multiplying the
hourly mean wage by a "year-round, full-time" hours figure of 2,080 hours;
for those occupations where there is not an hourly wage published, the
annual wage has been directly calculated from the reported survey
data.
(3) The relative standard error (RSE) is a measure of the
reliability of a survey statistic. The smaller the relative standard
error, the more precise the estimate.
(5) This wage is equal to or greater than $100.00 per hour or
$208,000 per year.
(8) Estimate not released.
(9) The location quotient is the ratio of the area
concentration of occupational employment to the national average
concentration. A location quotient greater than one indicates the
occupation has a higher share of employment than average, and a location
quotient less than one indicates the occupation is less prevalent in the
area than average.
