How this page is maintained
Maintained by the salary.city Data Team
Directly imported from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics May 2025 OEWS tables where the configured SOC and metro cell passes employment and percentile checks. Missing or suppressed cells are not replaced with generated wages.
May 2025 observed wages remain separate from the modeled 2026 scenario. Projection labels never replace or relabel the official observation.
Wage bands are processed through a 2026 federal/FICA tax profile with Single, Married Filing Jointly, and Head of Household options. State taxes remain simplified estimates and can change with credits, deductions, and local taxes.
Rental deductions use HUD 1-bedroom Fair Market Rent where available. FMR is a 40th percentile gross rent benchmark, so we label it as FMR instead of median rent.
LCA context is shown only when metro, SOC, and normalized job title all match. These employer attestations are wage records, not verified offers or proof of a completed hire.
