Sales Representatives, Wholesale and Manufacturing, Technical and Scientific Products pay in Colorado and Massachusetts
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Sales Representatives, Wholesale and Manufacturing, Technical and Scientific Products is $135,000 per year in Colorado. It is $118,980 per year in Massachusetts. Colorado is 13.5% above Massachusetts on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 41-4011 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 4,150 wage and salary jobs in Colorado and 11,650 in Massachusetts. 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.
