Computer Network Support Specialists pay in Georgia and Washington
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Computer Network Support Specialists is $79,180 per year in Georgia. It is $101,750 per year in Washington. Georgia is 22.2% below Washington on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 15-1231 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 4,440 wage and salary jobs in Georgia and 3,300 in Washington. 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.
