BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Dalton, GA was 89.8, or 10.2% below the national price level. Its housing index was 63.3.
National-price-dollar proxy
$30,341
WageScope divides the published Cashiers median by the BEA all-items index. This is a price-level comparison, not take-home pay, a personal budget, or a quality-of-life score.
Use the local pay range, same-source bench marks, job scale, price level, and survey care marks as separate facts. This guide stays tied to SOC 41-2011 and BLS area 19140.

Dalton, GA was 17.1% below the U.S. median for Cashiers. It ranked 353 of 393 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Cashiers median in Dalton, GA at $27,260 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 41-2011 and BLS area 19140.
BLS lists 1,350 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 $26,490 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Dalton, GA's Cashiers median is 17.1% below the U.S. Cashiers median of $32,880 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.
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 41-2011 and area 19140. SOC 41-2011 names Cashiers. Area 19140 names Dalton, GA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 41-2011/19140 row reports 1,350 wage and salary jobs, 20.61 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.04 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 41-2011/19140, the annual median is $27,260 per year, while the matching mean is $26,490 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 19140 reports 65,300 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $53,820. Its annual median is $42,210. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.6%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 41-2011 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Dalton, GA runs from $27,280 at the 10th percentile to $91,170 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $34,390. The median is $42,210. The 75th percentile is $60,790. This is a place check, not a pay range for Cashiers.
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 19140. They do not show related skills or a path into Cashiers.
1. Area 19140, SOC 51-6064, Textile Winding, Twisting, and Drawing Out Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders: 3,370 jobs, $38,670 annual median, 51.62 jobs per 1,000, and 364.53 location quotient.
2. Area 19140, SOC 53-7062, Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand: 2,470 jobs, $37,040 annual median, 37.78 jobs per 1,000, and 1.99 location quotient.
3. Area 19140, SOC 53-7051, Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators: 2,000 jobs, $37,930 annual median, 30.63 jobs per 1,000, and 6.15 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Dalton, GA wage ladder for Cashiers
The 10th percentile is $20,490 per year. The 25th percentile is $22,730 per year. The median is $27,260 per year. The 75th percentile is $29,260 per year. The 90th percentile is $32,280 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 $22,730 per year to $29,260 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $11,790. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Dalton, GA has a annual median of $27,260 per year. Georgia has $29,070 per year. The U.S. row has $32,880 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Dalton, GA is 6.2% below Georgia on the same published median. Dalton, GA is 17.1% 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.
Dalton, GA ranks 353 of 393 among metro areas with a published annual median for Cashiers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 353 of 393 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.
350. El Paso, TX has a Cashiers median of $27,320 per year, 6,670 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.99.
351. Florence-Muscle Shoals, AL has a Cashiers median of $27,310 per year, 1,580 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.41.
352. Gulfport-Biloxi, MS has a Cashiers median of $27,300 per year, 4,610 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.47.
354. Lawton, OK has a Cashiers median of $27,250 per year, 1,120 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.31.
355. Lubbock, TX has a Cashiers median of $27,220 per year, 3,370 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.02.
Pay leaders
Where Cashiers medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 41-2011, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA has the highest published median in this set, at $44,210 per year. Dalton, GA sits at $27,260 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Cashiers 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. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA has a Cashiers median of $44,210 per year, or $16,950 above Dalton, GA. BLS lists 30,470 jobs there, compared with 1,350 in Dalton, GA. The location quotient is 0.74.
2. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Cashiers median of $42,960 per year, or $15,700 above Dalton, GA. BLS lists 16,530 jobs there, compared with 1,350 in Dalton, GA. The location quotient is 0.73.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Cashiers jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Cashiers in this same-source set, at 173,830 jobs. Dalton, GA has 1,350. 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 173,830 estimated Cashiers jobs, a gap of 172,480 jobs from Dalton, GA. Its median is $35,950 per year, or $8,690 above Dalton, GA. Its location quotient is 0.92.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 109,940 estimated Cashiers jobs, a gap of 108,590 jobs from Dalton, GA. Its median is $36,980 per year, or $9,720 above Dalton, GA. Its location quotient is 0.88.
Local-share leaders
Where Cashiers takes the largest share of local jobs
Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 2.36. Dalton, GA has 1.04. 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 Cashiers 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. Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ has a location quotient of 2.36, a gap of 1.32 from Dalton, GA. BLS lists 2,650 Cashiers jobs and a median of $32,510 per year, or $5,250 above Dalton, GA.
2. Guayama, PR has a location quotient of 2.22, a gap of 1.18 from Dalton, GA. BLS lists 550 Cashiers jobs and a median of $22,070 per year, or $5,190 below Dalton, GA.
3. Arecibo, PR has a location quotient of 1.98, a gap of 0.94 from Dalton, GA. BLS lists 1,360 Cashiers jobs and a median of $22,440 per year, or $4,820 below Dalton, GA.
Job scale and share
How common Cashiers is in Dalton, GA
BLS lists 1,350 Cashiers jobs in Dalton, GA. It also lists 20.61 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 1.04. A value of 1 means Cashiers has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is the same 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.
The all-occupations median in Dalton, GA is $42,210 per year. The Cashiers median is $27,260 per year. Cashiers is 35.4% 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 Dalton, GA. 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 Cashiers. 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. Retail Salespersons, SOC 41-2031, has a Dalton, GA median of $29,140 per year. BLS lists 1,360 jobs and a location quotient of 0.83.
2. Janitors and Cleaners, Except Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners, SOC 37-2011, has a Dalton, GA median of $30,520 per year. BLS lists 550 jobs and a location quotient of 0.59.
3. Fast Food and Counter Workers, SOC 35-3023, has a Dalton, GA median of $23,400 per year. BLS lists 1,530 jobs and a location quotient of 0.94.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Dalton, GA
Textile Winding, Twisting, and Drawing Out Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Dalton, GA table, at 3,370 jobs. Cashiers has 1,350 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 65,300. 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 Cashiers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Textile Winding, Twisting, and Drawing Out Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders has 3,370 jobs in Dalton, GA, a gap of 2,020 from Cashiers. Its median is $38,670 per year, or $11,410 above Cashiers. Its location quotient is 364.53.
2. Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand has 2,470 jobs in Dalton, GA, a gap of 1,120 from Cashiers. Its median is $37,040 per year, or $9,780 above Cashiers. Its location quotient is 1.99.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Dalton, GA
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Dalton, GA role table, at $94,050 per year. Cashiers has $27,260 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $42,210 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 $94,050 per year in Dalton, GA, or $66,790 above Cashiers. BLS lists 1,170 jobs, compared with 1,350 for Cashiers. Its location quotient is 0.79.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $83,290 per year in Dalton, GA, or $56,030 above Cashiers. BLS lists 1,000 jobs, compared with 1,350 for Cashiers. Its location quotient is 0.71.
3. Sales Representatives, Wholesale and Manufacturing, Except Technical and Scientific Products has a median of $65,930 per year in Dalton, GA, or $38,670 above Cashiers. BLS lists 790 jobs, compared with 1,350 for Cashiers. Its location quotient is 1.53.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Dalton, GA
Textile Winding, Twisting, and Drawing Out Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders has the highest location quotient in the bounded Dalton, GA role table, at 364.53. Cashiers has 1.04. 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 Cashiers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Textile Winding, Twisting, and Drawing Out Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders has a location quotient of 364.53 in Dalton, GA, a gap of 363.49 from Cashiers. BLS lists 3,370 jobs and a median of $38,670 per year, or $11,410 above Cashiers.
2. Textile Knitting and Weaving Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders has a location quotient of 222.31 in Dalton, GA, a gap of 221.27 from Cashiers. BLS lists 1,220 jobs and a median of $39,840 per year, or $12,580 above Cashiers.
Price-level view
What $27,260 may mean after the Dalton, GA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Dalton, GA is 89.8. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 10.2% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $27,260 Cashiers median by 89.8 divided by 100. The result is $30,341 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 63.3. Goods are 96.3. Utilities are 88.8. Other services are 98.7. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Cashiers row is 4.2%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.9%. 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 1,350 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $26,490 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.
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Cashiers. It uses a Dalton, GA 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 $27,260 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.
What the Cashiers row for Dalton, GA 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 1,350 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.04 is not a growth score. Rank 353 of 393 is not a place score. The 89.8 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 41-2011 in BLS area 19140. 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.
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.
