Cardiovascular Technologists and Technicians pay in Minnesota and Utah
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Cardiovascular Technologists and Technicians is $71,520 per year in Minnesota. It is $113,510 per year in Utah. Minnesota is 37.0% below Utah on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 29-2031 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 950 wage and salary jobs in Minnesota and 1,250 in Utah. 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.
