1.1%
Santa Fe, NM was 20.6% below the U.S. median for Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. It ranked 113 of 171 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median says in Santa Fe, NM
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median in Santa Fe, NM at $46,900 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 53-3052 and BLS area 42140.
BLS lists 90 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 $44,970 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Santa Fe, NM's Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median is 20.6% below the U.S. Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median of $59,050 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 53-3052 with area 42140
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 53-3052 and area 42140. SOC 53-3052 names Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. Area 42140 names Santa Fe, NM. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 53-3052/42140 row reports 90 wage and salary jobs, 1.46 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.42 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 53-3052/42140, the annual median is $46,900 per year, while the matching mean is $44,970 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
53-3052/42140 has no suppression mark in the fields shown on this page.
Place source check
BLS area 42140 facts behind this Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity page
Area 42140 reports 61,770 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $62,760. Its annual median is $48,710. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 53-3052 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Santa Fe, NM runs from $30,780 at the 10th percentile to $107,200 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,630. The median is $48,710. The 75th percentile is $75,750. This is a place check, not a pay range for Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity.
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 42140. They do not show related skills or a path into Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity.
1. Area 42140, SOC 43-6014, Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive: 2,410 jobs, $50,170 annual median, 39.01 jobs per 1,000, and 3.55 location quotient.

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 $39,140 per year to $48,350 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $9,210. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Same-source checks
Compare Santa Fe, NM with its state and the U.S.
Santa Fe, NM has a annual median of $46,900 per year. New Mexico has $45,610 per year. The U.S. row has $59,050 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Santa Fe, NM is 2.8% above New Mexico on the same published median. Santa Fe, NM is 20.6% 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 Santa Fe, NM sits for Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity
Santa Fe, NM ranks 113 of 171 among metro areas with a published annual median for Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 113 of 171 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.
110. Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI has a Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median of $47,460 per year, 980 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.5.
111. Midland, MI has a Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median of $47,050 per year, 110 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.76.
112. Michigan City-La Porte, IN has a Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median of $46,910 per year, 30 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.72.
114. Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, TX has a Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median of $46,860 per year, 1,700 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.28.
Pay leaders
Where Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 53-3052, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV has the highest published median in this set, at $90,460 per year. Santa Fe, NM sits at $46,900 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity 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. Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV has a Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median of $90,460 per year, or $43,560 above Santa Fe, NM. BLS lists 2,180 jobs there, compared with 90 in Santa Fe, NM. The location quotient is 1.87.
2. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA has a Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median of $83,430 per year, or $36,530 above Santa Fe, NM. BLS lists 4,430 jobs there, compared with 90 in Santa Fe, NM. The location quotient is 2.07.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity in this same-source set, at 19,770 jobs. Santa Fe, NM has 90. 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. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 19,770 estimated Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity jobs, a gap of 19,680 jobs from Santa Fe, NM. Its median is $78,130 per year, or $31,230 above Santa Fe, NM. Its location quotient is 2.03.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 10,140 estimated Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity jobs, a gap of 10,050 jobs from Santa Fe, NM. Its median is $68,020 per year, or $21,120 above Santa Fe, NM. Its location quotient is 1.58.
Local-share leaders
Where Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity takes the largest share of local jobs
Urban Honolulu, HI has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 3.95. Santa Fe, NM has 1.42. 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 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity 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. Urban Honolulu, HI has a location quotient of 3.95, a gap of 2.53 from Santa Fe, NM. BLS lists 1,810 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity jobs and a median of $68,500 per year, or $21,600 above Santa Fe, NM.
2. Santa Cruz-Watsonville, CA has a location quotient of 3.69, a gap of 2.27 from Santa Fe, NM. BLS lists 370 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity jobs and a median of $57,780 per year, or $10,880 above Santa Fe, NM.
3. Champaign-Urbana, IL has a location quotient of 3.62, a gap of 2.20 from Santa Fe, NM. BLS lists 390 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity jobs and a median of $51,010 per year, or $4,110 above Santa Fe, NM.
Job scale and share
How common Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity is in Santa Fe, NM
BLS lists 90 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity jobs in Santa Fe, NM. It also lists 1.46 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 1.42. A value of 1 means Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity 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
Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity beside other roles in Santa Fe, NM
The all-occupations median in Santa Fe, NM is $48,710 per year. The Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median is $46,900 per year. Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity is 3.7% 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 Santa Fe, NM. 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 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. 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. Waiters and Waitresses, SOC 35-3031, has a Santa Fe, NM median of $46,640 per year. BLS lists 1,680 jobs and a location quotient of 1.87.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Food Preparation and Serving Workers, SOC 35-1012, has a Santa Fe, NM median of $47,290 per year. BLS lists 600 jobs and a location quotient of 1.24.
3. First-Line Supervisors of Retail Sales Workers, SOC 41-1011, has a Santa Fe, NM median of $49,120 per year. BLS lists 670 jobs and a location quotient of 1.49.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Santa Fe, NM
Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Santa Fe, NM table, at 2,410 jobs. Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity has 90 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 61,770. 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 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has 2,410 jobs in Santa Fe, NM, a gap of 2,320 from Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. Its median is $50,170 per year, or $3,270 above Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. Its location quotient is 3.55.
2. Retail Salespersons has 2,320 jobs in Santa Fe, NM, a gap of 2,230 from Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. Its median is $35,960 per year, or $10,940 below Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. Its location quotient is 1.5.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Santa Fe, NM
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Santa Fe, NM role table, at $106,770 per year. Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity has $46,900 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $48,710 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 $106,770 per year in Santa Fe, NM, or $59,870 above Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. BLS lists 1,630 jobs, compared with 90 for Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. Its location quotient is 1.17.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $100,790 per year in Santa Fe, NM, or $53,890 above Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. BLS lists 1,090 jobs, compared with 90 for Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. Its location quotient is 0.81.
3. Executive Secretaries and Executive Administrative Assistants has a median of $81,410 per year in Santa Fe, NM, or $34,510 above Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. BLS lists 600 jobs, compared with 90 for Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. Its location quotient is 3.3.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Santa Fe, NM
Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has the highest location quotient in the bounded Santa Fe, NM role table, at 3.55. Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity has 1.42. 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 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has a location quotient of 3.55 in Santa Fe, NM, a gap of 2.13 from Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. BLS lists 2,410 jobs and a median of $50,170 per year, or $3,270 above Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity.
2. Executive Secretaries and Executive Administrative Assistants has a location quotient of 3.3 in Santa Fe, NM, a gap of 1.88 from Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. BLS lists 600 jobs and a median of $81,410 per year, or $34,510 above Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity.
Price-level view
What $46,900 may mean after the Santa Fe, NM price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Santa Fe, NM is 98.8. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 1.2% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $46,900 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity median by 98.8 divided by 100. The result is $47,485 in national-price dollars per year. This proxy keeps the math clear. It is not take-home pay and does not set a move target.
Housing is 108.0. Goods are 96.1. Utilities are 76.7. Other services are 98.5. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
Data care
How much care to use with the Santa Fe, NM row
The employment RSE for this Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity row is 4.6%. The mean-wage RSE is 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 90 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $44,970 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 Santa Fe, NM wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity. It uses a Santa Fe, NM 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 $46,900 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 Bus Drivers, Transit and Intercity row for Santa Fe, NM 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 90 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.42 is not a growth score. Rank 113 of 171 is not a place score. The 98.8 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 53-3052 in BLS area 42140. 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 90 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.
