Gambling Cage Workers pay in Maryland and New York
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Gambling Cage Workers is $47,930 per year in Maryland. It is $48,340 per year in New York. Maryland is 0.8% below New York on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 43-3041 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 280 wage and salary jobs in Maryland and 290 in New York. 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.
