Questions, answered
Biochemists and Biophysicists pay in Puerto Rico: common questions
What is the median wage for Biochemists and Biophysicists in Puerto Rico?
The May 2025 BLS OEWS release published a median of $64,140 per year for Biochemists and Biophysicists in Puerto Rico. This describes an occupation-area estimate, not a promised offer or an individual's pay.
Is Biochemists and Biophysicists pay higher in Puerto Rico than nationally?
Puerto Rico's published median was 49.7% below the U.S. median for the same occupation and release.
Does the wage estimate adjust for cost of living in Puerto Rico?
No. The BLS wage is nominal, and WageScope has no exact current BEA Regional Price Parity row for this BLS area. It does not substitute a nearby place or invent an adjustment.

What the Biochemists and Biophysicists median says in Puerto Rico
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Biochemists and Biophysicists median in Puerto Rico at $64,140 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 19-1021 and BLS area 72.
BLS lists 130 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 $69,270 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Puerto Rico's Biochemists and Biophysicists median is 49.7% below the U.S. Biochemists and Biophysicists median of $127,410 on the same published median. The comparison uses the same SOC code and source period. It does not add price levels, taxes, benefits, hours, or a person's work history.
Exact source record
Read source key 19-1021 with area 72
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 19-1021 and area 72. SOC 19-1021 names Biochemists and Biophysicists. Area 72 names Puerto Rico. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 19-1021/72 row reports 130 wage and salary jobs, 0.13 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.62 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 19-1021/72, the annual median is $64,140 per year, while the matching mean is $69,270 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
19-1021/72 has no suppression mark in the fields shown on this page.
Place source check
BLS area 72 facts behind this Biochemists and Biophysicists page
Area 72 reports 938,710 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $38,840. Its annual median is $28,680. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.7%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 19-1021 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Puerto Rico runs from $21,840 at the 10th percentile to $64,420 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $22,490. The median is $28,680. The 75th percentile is $44,090. This is a place check, not a pay range for Biochemists and Biophysicists.
The source rows below are the six largest detailed roles in the bounded area file. Each keeps its own SOC code. They help a reader spot-check area 72. They do not show related skills or a path into Biochemists and Biophysicists.
1. Area 72, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 41,230 jobs, $22,560 annual median, 43.92 jobs per 1,000, and 1.75 location quotient.
2. Area 72, SOC 37-2011, Janitors and Cleaners, Except Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners: 29,030 jobs, $21,890 annual median, 30.93 jobs per 1,000, and 2.18 location quotient.
3. Area 72, SOC 41-2011, Cashiers: 27,320 jobs, $22,140 annual median, 29.11 jobs per 1,000, and 1.46 location quotient.
4. Area 72, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 26,440 jobs, $22,030 annual median, 28.16 jobs per 1,000, and 1.14 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Puerto Rico wage ladder for Biochemists and Biophysicists
The 10th percentile is $49,260 per year. The 25th percentile is $64,050 per year. The median is $64,140 per year. The 75th percentile is $77,040 per year. The 90th percentile is $80,180 per year.
A percentile is a rank point, not a career stage. The 10th percentile does not mean new-worker pay. The 90th percentile does not mean a wage that comes after a set number of years. The points show how the wage values spread in the source. They do not say why one job sits at one point.
The middle half runs from $64,050 per year to $77,040 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $30,920. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Same-source checks
Compare Puerto Rico with its state and the U.S.
Puerto Rico has a annual median of $64,140 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $127,410 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico is 49.7% 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 bench marks, 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 Puerto Rico sits for Biochemists and Biophysicists
Puerto Rico ranks 35 of 36 among states and territories with a published annual median for Biochemists and Biophysicists. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 35 of 36 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.
32. Nevada has a Biochemists and Biophysicists median of $69,220 per year, Not published estimated jobs, and a location quotient of Not published.
33. Oklahoma has a Biochemists and Biophysicists median of $69,130 per year, 70 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.18.
34. Nebraska has a Biochemists and Biophysicists median of $66,910 per year, 70 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.31.
36. Alabama has a Biochemists and Biophysicists median of $48,510 per year, 90 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.2.
Pay leaders
Where Biochemists and Biophysicists medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 19-1021, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Florida has the highest published median in this set, at $157,390 per year. Puerto Rico sits at $64,140 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Biochemists and Biophysicists 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 care marks, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. Florida has a Biochemists and Biophysicists median of $157,390 per year, or $93,250 above Puerto Rico. BLS lists 370 jobs there, compared with 130 in Puerto Rico. The location quotient is 0.17.
2. California has a Biochemists and Biophysicists median of $139,580 per year, or $75,440 above Puerto Rico. BLS lists 3,240 jobs there, compared with 130 in Puerto Rico. The location quotient is 0.82.
3. Tennessee has a Biochemists and Biophysicists median of $134,560 per year, or $70,420 above Puerto Rico. BLS lists 60 jobs there, compared with 130 in Puerto Rico. The location quotient is 0.08.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Biochemists and Biophysicists jobs
Massachusetts has the largest published state job estimate for Biochemists and Biophysicists in this same-source set, at 14,890 jobs. Puerto Rico has 130. 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. Massachusetts has 14,890 estimated Biochemists and Biophysicists jobs, a gap of 14,760 jobs from Puerto Rico. Its median is $131,600 per year, or $67,460 above Puerto Rico. Its location quotient is 18.81.
2. California has 3,240 estimated Biochemists and Biophysicists jobs, a gap of 3,110 jobs from Puerto Rico. Its median is $139,580 per year, or $75,440 above Puerto Rico. Its location quotient is 0.82.
3. Pennsylvania has 2,750 estimated Biochemists and Biophysicists jobs, a gap of 2,620 jobs from Puerto Rico. Its median is $134,090 per year, or $69,950 above Puerto Rico. Its location quotient is 2.08.
Local-share leaders
Where Biochemists and Biophysicists takes the largest share of local jobs
Massachusetts has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 18.81. Puerto Rico has 0.62. 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 Biochemists and Biophysicists 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. Massachusetts has a location quotient of 18.81, a gap of 18.19 from Puerto Rico. BLS lists 14,890 Biochemists and Biophysicists jobs and a median of $131,600 per year, or $67,460 above Puerto Rico.
2. Delaware has a location quotient of 4.62, a gap of 4.00 from Puerto Rico. BLS lists 490 Biochemists and Biophysicists jobs and a median of $101,880 per year, or $37,740 above Puerto Rico.
3. Maine has a location quotient of 2.8, a gap of 2.18 from Puerto Rico. BLS lists 390 Biochemists and Biophysicists jobs and a median of $84,560 per year, or $20,420 above Puerto Rico.
Job scale and share
How common Biochemists and Biophysicists is in Puerto Rico
BLS lists 130 Biochemists and Biophysicists jobs in Puerto Rico. It also lists 0.13 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 0.62. A value of 1 means Biochemists and Biophysicists has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is lower 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
Biochemists and Biophysicists beside other roles in Puerto Rico
The all-occupations median in Puerto Rico is $28,680 per year. The Biochemists and Biophysicists median is $64,140 per year. Biochemists and Biophysicists is 123.6% above 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 Puerto Rico. 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 Biochemists and Biophysicists. 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. General and Operations Managers, SOC 11-1021, has a Puerto Rico median of $73,570 per year. BLS lists 7,190 jobs and a location quotient of 0.34.
2. Business Operations Specialists, All Other, SOC 13-1199, has a Puerto Rico median of $46,700 per year. BLS lists 9,360 jobs and a location quotient of 1.43.
3. Police and Sheriff's Patrol Officers, SOC 33-3051, has a Puerto Rico median of $45,510 per year. BLS lists 11,640 jobs and a location quotient of 2.88.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Puerto Rico
Retail Salespersons is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Puerto Rico table, at 41,230 jobs. Biochemists and Biophysicists has 130 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 938,710. 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 Biochemists and Biophysicists's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Retail Salespersons has 41,230 jobs in Puerto Rico, a gap of 41,100 from Biochemists and Biophysicists. Its median is $22,560 per year, or $41,580 below Biochemists and Biophysicists. Its location quotient is 1.75.
2. Janitors and Cleaners, Except Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners has 29,030 jobs in Puerto Rico, a gap of 28,900 from Biochemists and Biophysicists. Its median is $21,890 per year, or $42,250 below Biochemists and Biophysicists. Its location quotient is 2.18.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Puerto Rico
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Puerto Rico role table, at $73,570 per year. Biochemists and Biophysicists has $64,140 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $28,680 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. General and Operations Managers has a median of $73,570 per year in Puerto Rico, or $9,430 above Biochemists and Biophysicists. BLS lists 7,190 jobs, compared with 130 for Biochemists and Biophysicists. Its location quotient is 0.34.
2. Business Operations Specialists, All Other has a median of $46,700 per year in Puerto Rico, or $17,440 below Biochemists and Biophysicists. BLS lists 9,360 jobs, compared with 130 for Biochemists and Biophysicists. Its location quotient is 1.43.
3. Police and Sheriff's Patrol Officers has a median of $45,510 per year in Puerto Rico, or $18,630 below Biochemists and Biophysicists. BLS lists 11,640 jobs, compared with 130 for Biochemists and Biophysicists. Its location quotient is 2.88.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Puerto Rico
Security Guards has the highest location quotient in the bounded Puerto Rico role table, at 3.37. Biochemists and Biophysicists has 0.62. 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 Biochemists and Biophysicists with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Security Guards has a location quotient of 3.37 in Puerto Rico, a gap of 2.75 from Biochemists and Biophysicists. BLS lists 26,100 jobs and a median of $21,840 per year, or $42,300 below Biochemists and Biophysicists.
2. Police and Sheriff's Patrol Officers has a location quotient of 2.88 in Puerto Rico, a gap of 2.26 from Biochemists and Biophysicists. BLS lists 11,640 jobs and a median of $45,510 per year, or $18,630 below Biochemists and Biophysicists.
3. Cooks, Institution and Cafeteria has a location quotient of 2.63 in Puerto Rico, a gap of 2.01 from Biochemists and Biophysicists. BLS lists 7,000 jobs and a median of $26,260 per year, or $37,880 below Biochemists and Biophysicists.
Price-level view
What $64,140 may mean after the Puerto Rico price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for Puerto Rico. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $64,140 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 Biochemists and Biophysicists with the U.S. or with like states and territories 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 Puerto Rico row
The employment RSE for this Biochemists and Biophysicists row is 15.7%. The mean-wage RSE is 2.6%. 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 130 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $69,270 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 Puerto Rico wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Biochemists and Biophysicists. It uses a Puerto Rico 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 $64,140 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 Biochemists and Biophysicists row for Puerto Rico 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 130 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.62 is not a growth score. Rank 35 of 36 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 19-1021 in BLS area 72. 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.
BLS published an employment estimate of 130 wage and salary jobs for this exact row. It is a survey estimate, not a current opening count or forecast.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. MeritLog shows eligible live public-catalog listings separately, with their own source and observation date. Posted pay never changes the official BLS distribution.
