Offered wages
Every occupation combined — read a single occupation's page for a comparable range.
25th $76,188 · median $103,813 · 75th $132,083 · 575 disclosed positions
Offered wages from certified Labor Condition Applications, grouped into $5,000 bands. Percentiles are computed from the bands, not from a stored average.
Figures cover the 100 highest-ranked sponsors for this location, which is what the precomputed ranking holds — they are floors, not state or metro totals. Filing counts are applications and position counts are worker positions; neither is a headcount, because a continued-employment application renews someone already working here.
