Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area was 23.0% below the U.S. median for Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. It ranked 100 of 103 nonmetro areas. We rank only areas with a published annual median. These pay gaps leave out prices, benefits, and skills. They also leave out the mix of firms and work hours.
What the Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median says in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area at $27,460 per year. Median means the middle of the published wage spread. It is not one worker's pay. It is not a job offer. The row is tied to SOC 53-6031 and BLS area 5100003.
BLS lists 60 wage and salary jobs for this exact role-place row. That is a survey estimate. It is not a count of open posts. The local mean is $28,040 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area's Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median is 23.0% below the U.S. Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median of $35,670 on the same published median. Both values use the same job code and source date. They do not account for prices, taxes, benefits, hours, or your work history.

Same-source checks
Compare Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $27,460 per year. Virginia has $30,350 per year. The U.S. row has $35,670 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area is 9.5% below Virginia on the same published median. Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area is 23.0% below the United States on the same published median. A gap can reflect many things that are not in this row. WageScope reports the gap but does not name a cause.
The state and U.S. rows are benchmarks, not replacements. They do not fill missing local facts. A state can hold many local labor markets. A national row can hold many states. Read the local row first, then use the broader rows to see scale.
Like-for-like rank
Where Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area sits for Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants
Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area ranks 100 of 103 among nonmetro areas with a published annual median for Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 100 of 103 is not a place score. A small wage gap can move a row several spots. The rank does not add local prices, job count, concentration, commute, taxes, or work rules. Use it only to find where the published median falls inside this like-for-like set.
The nearby rows below are the closest ranks, not chosen cities. Their pay, job counts, and local shares can differ. Open a peer page before making a deeper comparison. A title and one number are not enough for a move or pay choice.
97. Northeast Alabama nonmetropolitan area. The Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median is $28,300 per year. BLS estimates 120 jobs. The location quotient is 1.24.
98. Northeast Louisiana nonmetropolitan area. The Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median is $28,140 per year. BLS estimates 50 jobs. The location quotient is 1.28.
99. Northwest Alabama nonmetropolitan area. The Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median is $27,740 per year. BLS estimates 80 jobs. The location quotient is 1.76.
Pay leaders
Where Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 53-6031, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Maryland nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $45,600 per year. Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area sits at $27,460 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants is in the local mix. It also does not add local prices. The bullets keep the median, job count, and location quotient together so a high wage is not read as a full market score.
Use this list to choose a deeper pair, not to choose a place. Open the two local pages. Check the full wage ladder, the job scale, the survey limits, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. Maryland nonmetropolitan area has a Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median of $45,600 per year, or $18,140 above Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 80 jobs there, compared with 60 in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 1.12.
2. Eastern Sierra-Mother Lode Region of California nonmetropolitan area has a Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median of $44,370 per year, or $16,910 above Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with 60 in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 1.05.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants jobs
Coast Oregon nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants in this same-source set, at 550 jobs. Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area has 60. The count shows covered job scale, not open posts.
A large job base can have a lower median than a smaller one. It can also have a location quotient near or below 1. That is why WageScope does not blend job count, pay, and local share. Each field keeps its name and unit. The rows below let you compare all three without making one score.
Current MeritLog listings can add a dated view of employer-title matches. They do not change this May 2025 order. A place with few current cards can still have a large BLS job estimate. A place with several cards can still have a smaller estimate. The sources use different clocks and scopes.
1. Coast Oregon nonmetropolitan area has 550 estimated Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants jobs, a gap of 490 jobs from Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $31,260 per year, or $3,800 above Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 7.39.
2. Kansas nonmetropolitan area has 530 estimated Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants jobs, a gap of 470 jobs from Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $35,440 per year, or $7,980 above Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 2.16.
Local-share leaders
Where Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants takes the largest share of local jobs
Eastern Oregon nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 8.63. Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area has 1.65. A value above 1 means the role's local job share is larger than its national share.
A high quotient can come from a small local job base. It does not prove more jobs, more posts, faster growth, or higher pay. The bullets keep each quotient beside its BLS job count and median. This lets a reader see when the three measures point in different ways.
Use this list to ask where Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants is a large part of the local mix. Use the employment list to ask where BLS counts the most jobs. Use the pay list to ask where the median is highest. None of those lists decides where a person should work.
1. Eastern Oregon nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 8.63, a gap of 6.98 from Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 420 Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants jobs and a median of $30,410 per year, or $2,950 above Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area.
2. Central Oregon nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 8.46, a gap of 6.81 from Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 280 Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants jobs and a median of $30,690 per year, or $3,230 above Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area.
Job scale and share
How common Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants is in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists 60 Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants jobs in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. It also lists 1.08 jobs per 1,000 local jobs. Jobs per 1,000 turns the count into a rate. It helps compare places of different size. It does not show open posts or hiring speed.
The location quotient is 1.65. A value of 1 means Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is higher than 1. The quotient is a share check, not a wage or a growth measure.
Read the three values as separate facts. Employment asks how many covered jobs BLS estimated. Jobs per 1,000 asks how much of the local job base the role takes. Location quotient asks how that share compares with the national share. None of them tells you how many posts are open today.
Local job mix
Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants beside other roles in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area
The all-occupations median in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area is $47,010 per year. The Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants median is $27,460 per year. Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants is 41.6% below the local all-occupations median on the same published median. This compares one role with the full covered job mix.
The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. They are close by wage, not by task. A small wage gap does not mean two jobs need the same skill or lead to the same career. Official titles keep their own SOC codes and source rows.
Use the list to spot the local wage mix around Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. Then open the role page you mean. A role can have a similar median and a very different job count or local share. The pay number alone cannot show fit, demand, or a path between jobs.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers, SOC 35-3023, has a Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area median of $27,930 per year. BLS lists 1,530 jobs and a location quotient of 1.07.
2. Cashiers, SOC 41-2011, has a Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area median of $28,980 per year. BLS lists 1,780 jobs and a location quotient of 1.55.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area
Cashiers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area table, at 1,780 jobs. Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants has 60 jobs in its exact role-place row. The two counts show where this role sits beside other large parts of the local job base.
The all-occupations job count is 57,660. The detailed list below is only a bounded view of that larger mix. It does not sum to every local job. It does not include a blank role as zero. It helps explain why one role's wage and job count should not stand in for the whole area.
A large role can have a lower median. A smaller role can have a higher one. Job count does not show current posts, job quality, or growth. Use the list to see local scale. Then keep Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Cashiers has 1,780 jobs in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 1,720 from Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. Its median is $28,980 per year, or $1,520 above Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. Its location quotient is 1.55.
2. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 1,530 jobs in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 1,470 from Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. Its median is $27,930 per year, or $470 above Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. Its location quotient is 1.07.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area
Engineers, All Other has the highest published median in the bounded Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area role table, at $161,470 per year. Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants has $27,460 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,010 per year. A role above that mark is not better. A role below it is not worse. The mark only shows where the role's published median sits against the full covered job mix. Job tasks, level, hours, and work setting are separate facts.
The bullets keep each SOC title, job count, median, and local share together. Use them to find a role page worth opening. Do not use a close median as proof that two roles share skills or that one is a path to the other.
1. Engineers, All Other has a median of $161,470 per year in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area, or $134,010 above Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. BLS lists 740 jobs, compared with 60 for Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. Its location quotient is 12.98.
2. Computer Occupations, All Other has a median of $147,620 per year in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area, or $120,160 above Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. BLS lists 490 jobs, compared with 60 for Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. Its location quotient is 3.06.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area
Computer and Information Research Scientists has the highest location quotient in the bounded Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area role table, at 61.55. Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants has 1.65. Both values compare a local job share with the matching national share.
A quotient above 1 means the role takes a larger share of local jobs than it does across the nation. It does not mean more jobs than every other role. It does not mean open posts, growth, or high pay. The job count and median beside each row answer those other narrow questions.
The local role-share mix can differ a lot from the pay mix. Read both lists. Then compare Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Computer and Information Research Scientists has a location quotient of 61.55 in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 59.90 from Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. BLS lists 850 jobs and a median of $130,670 per year, or $103,210 above Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants.
2. Engineers, All Other has a location quotient of 12.98 in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 11.33 from Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. BLS lists 740 jobs and a median of $161,470 per year, or $134,010 above Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants.
Price-level view
What $27,460 may mean after the Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $27,460 BLS median stays a nominal wage.
No price row means no national-price-dollar proxy. It does not mean prices match the U.S. level. It does not say whether a wage goes far or not. The source is missing for this exact map key, so the price answer stays open.
You can still compare Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants with the U.S. or with like nonmetro areas on the same BLS metric. Keep that as a nominal wage comparison. Add price-level context only when an exact reviewed row exists.
Data care
How much care to use with the Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants row is 49.5%. The mean-wage RSE is 5.1%. RSE means relative standard error. It is a survey precision flag. A smaller value often means less sampling uncertainty. It is not the chance that one person's pay is right or wrong.
The employment RSE belongs to the 60 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $28,040 mean. BLS does not give the same RSE field for the median or every percentile. WageScope does not move an RSE from one field to another.
A local row can change in a new release. A small role-place sample can also have more survey uncertainty than a broad national row. Keep the May 2025 date next to the value. Do not mix a newer job post with the BLS date as if both facts came from one clock.
Job and résumé path
Use Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants. It uses a Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area place filter only when the public place list has an exact approved match. If that match is not safe, the page says the jobs are not narrowed to this place. A false negative is safer than showing a different role.
Each card keeps its employer, place, source, and seen date. Listings can change between visits while the survey figures stay tied to their release date. A listing range does not replace the $27,460 BLS median. The listing and survey answer different questions.
Open one listing. Check its level, work place, pay range, and needs. Then tailor with work facts you can support. Do not turn a wage, job count, rank, or price proxy into a résumé claim. The public page is read only. It does not save a job or start a draft on load.
Limits
What the Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants row for Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area does not claim
The row does not say what one person earns. It does not promise a job, offer, raise, or move result. It does not say why the local median differs from the U.S. row. It does not add tips, bonus pay, stock, benefits, taxes, or work hours unless those items are in the BLS wage measure.
The 60 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.65 is not a growth score. Rank 100 of 103 is not a place score. A missing price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 53-6031 in BLS area 5100003. Compare the same metric with the state and U.S. rows. Add the separate 2024 price level when present. Inspect a dated job match. Then use confirmed work facts for a résumé.
How many Automotive and Watercraft Service Attendants jobs does BLS estimate in Northeast Virginia nonmetropolitan area?
BLS estimates 60 wage and salary jobs for this row. This is a survey estimate. It does not count open jobs or predict future hiring.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. We show job posts in a separate list. Each has its own source and check date. Posted pay does not change the BLS pay data.
