Obstetricians and Gynecologists pay in Maine and Utah
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Obstetricians and Gynecologists is $379,930 per year in Maine. It is $437,170 per year in Utah. Maine is 13.1% below Utah on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 29-1218 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 100 wage and salary jobs in Maine and 200 in Utah. 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.
