Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators pay in District of Columbia and Wyoming
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators is $83,720 per year in District of Columbia. It is $59,820 per year in Wyoming. District of Columbia is 40.0% above Wyoming on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 53-7051 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 Not published wage and salary jobs in District of Columbia and 790 in Wyoming. 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.
