Transportation Security Screeners pay in New Hampshire and Pennsylvania
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Transportation Security Screeners is $76,130 per year in New Hampshire. It is $67,330 per year in Pennsylvania. New Hampshire is 13.1% above Pennsylvania on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 33-9093 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 80 wage and salary jobs in New Hampshire and 1,460 in Pennsylvania. 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.
