Both rows use SOC 37-2021 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 Jackson, TN and 160 in Reno, NV. 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.
