What the all-jobs median says about Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the all-occupations median in Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI at $48,870 per year. This is the middle wage across covered wage and salary jobs in the area. It is not the median for each job title. It is not one worker's pay. Use an occupation page when you need a role-level answer.
BLS lists 76,280 covered jobs in Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI. The all-occupations mean is $60,060 per year. Mean means add the wage values and split the total by the number of jobs behind the estimate. The median and mean can differ because the local wage mix is not even.
Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI's $48,870 all-occupations median is 4.1% below the U.S. all-occupations median of $50,980 on the same published median. This is a wage check on the same source period. It does not add local price levels, taxes, hours, benefits, or household needs.
Where Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI sits among metro areas
Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI ranks 151 of 393 among metro areas with a published annual all-occupations median. WageScope keeps the map type the same. It does not place a state, metro, and nonmetro row in one rank. The rank uses the May 2025 BLS median only.
A rank is a place in a sorted list. It is not a score. It does not say a place is good or bad. It does not show the size of the job base. Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI has 76,280 covered jobs, while another row near it can have a very different count.
The nearby rank rows give context without turning the list into a league table. Small gaps can move a place by several spots. A later BLS release can also change the order. Read the wage gap and the source date beside the rank. Do not use rank alone to make a move.

The largest detailed occupations shown for Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI
The role list is sorted by the BLS employment estimate. It shows detailed occupations from the bounded source table for Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI. The first row, Home Health and Personal Care Aides, has 3,210 estimated jobs. Its median is $35,740 per year.
Large roles shape the all-occupations wage mix, but they do not set it by themselves. A role with many jobs and a lower wage can pull the middle one way. A smaller role with a higher wage can move the mean. The all-occupations row is based on the whole covered job mix, not just the occupations shown in this bounded list.
Employment here means wage and salary jobs in the BLS survey scope. It does not mean people looking for work. It does not mean openings. It does not show how fast a role is changing. Use the current job cards only to inspect dated employer-title matches. Keep that view apart from this May 2025 job count.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 3,210 estimated jobs in Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI. Its published median is $35,740 per year. Its location quotient is 1.52.

Role pay range
How published medians differ inside Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI
The detailed roles shown for Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI do not share one pay level. General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in this bounded role set, at $106,740 per year. That does not make it the highest-paid role in every job or in every part of the area.
The list keeps each official SOC title tied to its own wage row. It does not blend fields, levels, or job posts. A role median can be above the $48,870 all-occupations median even when the role has few jobs. A large role can sit below that mark. Pay and job count answer different questions.
Use a role's own WageScope page before you compare places. That page shows the national spread, the same SOC code across areas, and the source limits. The area list is a starting map. It is not enough to set a pay target for one person or one listing.
1. General and Operations Managers has a published median of $106,740 per year in Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI. BLS lists 1,010 jobs. Its local share is 0.59 times the national share.

Local share
Roles with a larger local share in Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI
Location quotient compares a role's share of jobs in Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI with that role's share across the nation. A value of 1 means the shares match. A value above 1 means the role takes a larger share of local jobs. A value below 1 means the share is smaller. The value does not show growth or open jobs.
Electrical, Electronic, and Electromechanical Assemblers, Except Coil Winders, Tapers, and Finishers has the highest published location quotient in this bounded set, at 5.73. The same row has 690 jobs and a median of $46,940 per year. Read all three fields together.
A high share can appear in a small job base. A large job count can appear with a share near 1. A high median can appear in either case. The three measures are not a single score. They help you ask three clear questions: how many jobs, how common the role is in the local mix, and what wage BLS published.
1. Electrical, Electronic, and Electromechanical Assemblers, Except Coil Winders, Tapers, and Finishers has a location quotient of 5.73 in Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI. BLS lists 690 jobs and a median of $46,940 per year.

Separate price view
What the BEA price level adds for Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI is 96.0. The U.S. level is 100. The local all-items level is 4.0% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
The housing index is 92.0. The goods index is 93.8. Utilities are 90.0. Other services are 99.4. These parts can move in different ways. The all-items number joins them with BEA's method; WageScope does not pick its own weights.
The BLS wage period is May 2025. The BEA price period is 2024. WageScope shows both dates because the clocks differ. It can divide a wage by the all-items index for a clear national-price-dollar proxy. It does not call that result take-home pay, spending power for one home, or a place score.
How to read survey care marks for Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI
The all-occupations employment RSE for Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. RSE means relative standard error. It is a survey precision flag. A smaller value often means less sampling uncertainty. It is not an error bar for one person's wage.
The employment RSE belongs to the 76,280 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the all-occupations mean. WageScope does not attach either field to a detailed role, the median, or a percentile. Each role row has its own published care marks when BLS supplies them.
Some BLS values are blank or top coded. Blank does not mean zero. A top code means the value is at least the shown bound. WageScope keeps those states in the role pages and tables. It does not fill a missing value from a peer role, past year, or nearby place.
Use Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI as a map, then choose one occupation
Start with the role that matches the work you mean. Official titles can sound broad. Open the role page and check its SOC code. Then compare the Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI row with the U.S. row on the same annual or hourly metric. Read the job count and location quotient beside the wage. Add the BEA price level only when the exact row is present.
Next, look at the wage spread. The median shows the middle. The 10th, 25th, 75th, and 90th percentiles show more of the range. A posted job range can be compared with those marks as context, but it stays employer evidence. It never becomes part of the BLS estimate.
If the role-place row is missing, use the national role page or choose another official area. Do not guess. A clean missing state is more useful than a made-up number. It tells you what the source can and cannot answer.
Move from Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI wage data to one checked job
The area page does not treat every local job as the same. Choose an occupation first. WageScope can then use a strict employer-title match for that role. A place filter is used only when the BLS area has an exact approved match in the public place list. If that match is not safe, the page says so.
Each shown job keeps the employer, place, source, and seen date. The cards can change as the public catalog changes. They do not count toward this page's stable content gate. They do not change Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI's $48,870 all-occupations median. They do not prove that the employer uses the BLS title.
Open a listing before you tailor. Use facts from your own work that you can support. A wage value is not a skill, result, or duty. MeritLog can help shape confirmed work for the listing you chose. The public area page does not save the role, listing, place, or résumé on load.
What this Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI page does not say
The page does not say what one person in Racine-Mount Pleasant, WI earns. It does not promise a wage, job, move, or result. It does not call the all-occupations median a role wage. It does not turn rank 151 of 393 into a place score. It does not say why wages differ.
The BLS job count leaves out people who work for themselves and other work outside the survey scope. The current job cards are a separate set of public listings. Neither source shows all work. Neither source tells you the chance of getting hired. A missing value stays missing.
Use the page for a narrow task. See the May 2025 local wage picture. Choose one official occupation. Compare the same field across like places. Add the separate 2024 price level when it exists. Read a current employer-title match. Then make a résumé choice from work facts you have confirmed.
No. BLS wage estimates are nominal. Where an exact BEA Regional Price Parity row exists, WageScope shows that price-level context separately and labels its source period.
Are MeritLog job listings part of the government wage estimate?
No. Eligible live listings remain separate from BLS statistics. Their locations and posted pay do not change the official area or occupation rows.
