The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Agents and Business Managers of Artists, Performers, and Athletes is $98,200 per year in Florida. It is $73,400 per year in Virginia. Florida is 33.8% above Virginia on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 13-1011 and the same annual wage metric. Median means the middle of each area's published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. The larger median is not proof that one place gives a better job or a better result. It is one wage fact from one source period.
BLS lists 870 wage and salary jobs in Florida and 110 in Virginia. Those are survey job counts, not open posts. Read pay, job scale, local share, and price level as separate facts before you make a choice.
