Start with the answer
Transportation, Storage, and Distribution Managers pay in Delaware and Ohio
The May 2025 BLS OEWS median for Transportation, Storage, and Distribution Managers is $145,000 per year in Delaware. It is $101,550 per year in Ohio. Delaware is 42.8% above Ohio on the published median.
Both rows use SOC 11-3071 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 310 wage and salary jobs in Delaware and 9,480 in Ohio. 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.
