Electrical and Electronics Repairers, Commercial and Industrial Equipment pay in Maine and Washington
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Electrical and Electronics Repairers, Commercial and Industrial Equipment is $81,180 per year in Maine. It is $99,200 per year in Washington. Maine is 18.2% below Washington on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 49-2094 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 410 wage and salary jobs in Maine and 1,660 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.
