How pay is spread in Wyoming

By median pay, Wyoming is number 22 of the 54 states and territories in the figures. The lowest-paid tenth of employees earned less than $28,870 a year and the highest-paid tenth more than $104,190. The middle half, between the 25% and 75% lines, earned from $37,110 to $74,760. For the whole country those outer lines were $31,200 and $128,560. The average (mean) pay was $61,560, 22% above the median, because high earners lift an average more than a median. The 280,740 jobs counted here are 0.2% of all jobs in the national figures.

The kinds of work

Adding up the occupations with a published job count, the largest fields of work in Wyoming are Office and Administrative Support (28,100 jobs, 10%), Food Preparation and Serving Related (25,750 jobs, 9%), Construction and Extraction (25,240 jobs, 9%) and Transportation and Material Moving (24,350 jobs, 9%). Some occupations are far more common here than elsewhere. Set against their share of all jobs in the country, the most concentrated are Roustabouts, Oil and Gas (14.6 times the national share), Insulation Workers, Mechanical (11.7 times the national share) and Service Unit Operators, Oil and Gas (10.5 times the national share). The table on this page lists 515 occupations; for 11 of them the Bureau released a job count but no pay figure.

Same job, different pay

Among the 65 occupations with at least 1,000 jobs and a yearly median in the state, 12 pay more than the same occupation does nationally, 45 pay less and 8 are within 2%. The widest gaps above the national median are for First-Line Supervisors of Production and Operating Workers ($90,390 here, $74,450 nationally), Industrial Machinery Mechanics ($78,320 here, $64,520 nationally) and Electricians ($76,120 here, $63,190 nationally). The widest gaps below it are for Bartenders ($22,030 here, $34,340 nationally), Waiters and Waitresses ($23,920 here, $35,230 nationally) and Driver/Sales Workers ($26,940 here, $38,770 nationally). A gap in pay is not a gap in living standard: prices, housing costs and taxes differ between states, and these statistics do not adjust for them.
