Start with the answer

Family Medicine Physicians pay in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ and Oklahoma City, OK

The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Family Medicine Physicians is $249,150 per year in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. It is $481,870 per year in Oklahoma City, OK. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is 48.3% below Oklahoma City, OK on the published median.

Both rows use SOC 29-1215 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 4,870 wage and salary jobs in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ and 940 in Oklahoma City, OK. 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.

Pay range

Compare the full Family Medicine Physicians wage ladder

A median can hide a wide range. The 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 90th percentile points show more of each area's spread. A percentile is a rank point. It is not a career stage. The 10th point does not mean new-worker pay. The 90th point does not mean a wage that comes after a set number of years.

The lower half can differ from the upper half. One area can lead at the median and trail at another point. Read each field against the same field in the other area. Do not compare one area's 75th percentile with the other area's median. That would answer a different question.

A posted job range can sit below, across, or above these marks. That does not make the post wrong. A listing can differ by employer, level, hours, field, or work rules. Keep the listing tied to that employer. Keep the BLS range tied to the whole role-place row.

10th percentile: New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is $62,090 per year; Oklahoma City, OK is $163,620 per year. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is 62.1% below Oklahoma City, OK at this point.
25th percentile: New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is $96,560 per year; Oklahoma City, OK is $226,980 per year. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is 57.5% below Oklahoma City, OK at this point.

90th percentile: New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is $403,430 per year; Oklahoma City, OK is $486,270 per year. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is 17.0% below Oklahoma City, OK at this point.

Shape of pay

Mean and median tell two parts of the Family Medicine Physicians story

New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has a mean of $236,510 per year and a median of $249,150. Oklahoma City, OK has a mean of $376,600 per year and a median of $481,870. Mean adds all wage values and splits the total by the number of jobs behind the estimate.

New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ's mean is 5.1% below its median on the same published median. Oklahoma City, OK's mean is 21.8% below its median on the same published median. The gaps show that each wage spread has a shape. They do not explain why the shape differs.

Use median for the middle. Use mean to see how the full set pulls. Use percentiles to see more of the spread. None of the three is a pay promise. A person, team, or listing can sit far from all three for reasons that are outside these BLS rows.

Job scale

How the two Family Medicine Physicians job bases differ

New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 4,870 estimated Family Medicine Physicians jobs. Oklahoma City, OK has 940. The larger count shows a larger covered job base in this source. It does not show more open roles, faster hiring, or a better chance for one applicant.

New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 0.51 Family Medicine Physicians jobs per 1,000 local jobs. Oklahoma City, OK has 1.39 per 1,000. This rate helps compare places of different size. It is not a job-post rate and does not use the MeritLog catalog.

The employment RSE is 18% in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ and 41% in Oklahoma City, OK. RSE means relative standard error. It is a survey precision flag. It is not the chance that the job count or one person's pay is right.

Local share

Where Family Medicine Physicians takes a larger share of jobs

The location quotient is 0.74 in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ and 2.02 in Oklahoma City, OK. A value of 1 means the role has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. A value above 1 means the local share is larger. A value below 1 means it is smaller.

New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ's quotient is 63.4% below Oklahoma City, OK's. That gap is about the job mix. It is not a wage gap, a job-count gap, or a growth claim.

Read location quotient with employment. A small place can have a high share and few jobs. A large place can have many jobs and a share near the national mark. Then read pay as its own field. The three measures do not form one score.

BEA price view

How price levels differ between New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ and Oklahoma City, OK

BEA's 2024 all-items price index is 112.6 in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ and 90.4 in Oklahoma City, OK. The U.S. level is 100. A higher number means the broad local price level is higher than the national mark. It does not say a place is good or bad.

Housing is 148.6 in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ and 73.9 in Oklahoma City, OK. Goods are 110.3 and 93.8. Utilities are 127.0 and 74.1. Other services are 105.8 and 95.5. The parts can move in different ways.

The wage period is May 2025. The price period is 2024. WageScope keeps those clocks visible. It uses the all-items index for one clear proxy. It does not mix BEA prices into the BLS source row, and it does not claim the two releases describe the exact same month.

Price-level proxy

Compare the medians in national-price dollars

In New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ, we start with the $249,150 median. We divide it by 112.6 divided by 100. The result is $221,343 per year. In Oklahoma City, OK, we start with $481,870. We divide it by 90.4 divided by 100. That result is $532,995 per year.

New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ's proxy is 58.5% below Oklahoma City, OK's. The nominal gap is 48.3%. The order can stay the same or change after the price-level step. Both results must keep their labels.

The proxy is a narrow math tool. It is not take-home pay. It does not add taxes, benefits, household size, debt, commute, schools, safety, climate, or taste. It does not set a wage target. Use it to see how one broad price index changes the wage view, then check your own costs outside WageScope.

Same-proxy pay

What equal price-level pay would look like in the other place

$249,150 per year in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the same value after this price check as $200,112 per year in Oklahoma City, OK. We keep the result for New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ fixed. Then we apply the overall price index for Oklahoma City, OK.

$481,870 per year in Oklahoma City, OK has the same proxy as $599,955 per year in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. This reverse view is useful because the answer depends on which wage you start with. It is not a claim about an offer in either place.

Equivalent nominal pay uses one broad price measure. It does not know what a person buys. It does not know rent, family size, debt, taxes, travel, benefits, or savings. Treat the result as a clean source-backed comparison, not a full move plan or a number an employer must match.

Data care

Check the survey marks before you use the gap

The mean-wage RSE is 13.4% in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ and 18.6% in Oklahoma City, OK. The employment RSE is 18% and 41%. RSE is a precision flag for the field it sits beside. It is not a score for the whole page.

BLS does not publish the same RSE field for the median and each percentile. WageScope does not move a mean RSE to the median. It does not use an employment RSE as a wage care mark. Each value stays tied to its source field. Missing or top-coded values also keep their source state.

New BLS or BEA data can change the result. We check the source dates before release. If a full new release is waiting for review, we cannot call these data current. Each job card has its own check date. New job posts do not make the government data newer.

Use the result

A short check list for New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ and Oklahoma City, OK

Start with the same Family Medicine Physicians wage field. Then read the full percentile spread. Check job count, jobs per 1,000, and location quotient. Add the 2024 all-items and housing price levels. Read the national-price-dollar proxy with its limits. Keep the BLS and BEA dates in view.

Next, inspect one current employer-title match in each place when an exact public place match exists. A job post can show work level, hours, location rules, and pay that the BLS row cannot. The post is dated employer evidence. It does not change the survey median or prove a broad trend.

Last, use your own facts. Compare the job needs with work you have done and can support. A wage gap cannot show fit. A price-level gap cannot show fit. A job count cannot show fit. MeritLog's résumé path starts only after you choose a listing and confirm the work facts you want to use.

Limits

What this Family Medicine Physicians comparison does not decide

The page does not choose New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ or Oklahoma City, OK for you. It does not say what one worker earns. It does not promise a job, offer, raise, or move result. It does not say why the medians differ. It does not turn the larger wage, job count, quotient, or proxy into a place score.

This comparison leaves out people who work for themselves and jobs outside the BLS survey. It does not add taxes, take-home pay, benefits, stock, bonuses, or hours. It leaves out travel, remote work, and your home budget too. Job posts stay separate. There may be none even when all source data is ready.

Use this page for a bounded choice. Compare the same May 2025 BLS role and metric across two exact areas. Add the separate 2024 BEA price view. Inspect dated employer-title matches. Then build a résumé from facts you have confirmed. Keep each source tied to the question it can answer.
