Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC was 20.7% below the U.S. median for Chemists. It ranked 187 of 212 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Chemists median says in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Chemists median in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC at $72,340 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 19-2031 and BLS area 12260.
BLS lists 70 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 $83,480 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC's Chemists median is 20.7% below the U.S. Chemists median of $91,240 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 19-2031 and area 12260. SOC 19-2031 names Chemists. Area 12260 names Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 19-2031/12260 row reports 70 wage and salary jobs, 0.32 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.6 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 19-2031/12260, the annual median is $72,340 per year, while the matching mean is $83,480 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 12260 reports 231,930 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $60,020. Its annual median is $45,990. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 19-2031 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC runs from $25,800 at the 10th percentile to $108,010 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $32,610. The median is $45,990. The 75th percentile is $73,770. This is a place check, not a pay range for Chemists.
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 12260. They do not show related skills or a path into Chemists.
1. Area 12260, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 8,710 jobs, $26,620 annual median, 37.57 jobs per 1,000, and 1.52 location quotient.
2. Area 12260, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 6,930 jobs, $29,350 annual median, 29.89 jobs per 1,000, and 1.19 location quotient.
3. Area 12260, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 6,880 jobs, $87,760 annual median, 29.65 jobs per 1,000, and 1.36 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC wage ladder for Chemists
The 10th percentile is $52,660 per year. The 25th percentile is $59,670 per year. The median is $72,340 per year. The 75th percentile is $102,680 per year. The 90th percentile is $133,480 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 $59,670 per year to $102,680 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $80,820. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC with its state and the U.S.
Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC has a annual median of $72,340 per year. Georgia has $92,750 per year. The U.S. row has $91,240 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC is 22.0% below Georgia on the same published median. Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC is 20.7% 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.
Where Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC sits for Chemists
Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC ranks 187 of 212 among metro areas with a published annual median for Chemists. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 187 of 212 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.
184. Columbia, SC has a Chemists median of $73,430 per year, 190 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.9.
185. Orlando-Kissimmee-Sanford, FL has a Chemists median of $73,100 per year, 130 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.17.
186. Lima, OH has a Chemists median of $72,570 per year, 100 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 3.61.
188. Fargo, ND-MN has a Chemists median of $71,510 per year, 40 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.55.
Pay leaders
Where Chemists medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 19-2031, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has the highest published median in this set, at $144,680 per year. Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC sits at $72,340 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Chemists 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. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has a Chemists median of $144,680 per year, or $72,340 above Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. BLS lists 2,490 jobs there, compared with 70 in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. The location quotient is 1.49.
2. Bay City, MI has a Chemists median of $132,480 per year, or $60,140 above Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. BLS lists 250 jobs there, compared with 70 in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. The location quotient is 13.84.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Chemists jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Chemists in this same-source set, at 6,750 jobs. Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC has 70. 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 6,750 estimated Chemists jobs, a gap of 6,680 jobs from Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. Its median is $85,150 per year, or $12,810 above Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. Its location quotient is 1.34.
2. Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington, PA-NJ-DE-MD has 4,520 estimated Chemists jobs, a gap of 4,450 jobs from Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. Its median is $95,440 per year, or $23,100 above Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. Its location quotient is 2.93.
Local-share leaders
Where Chemists takes the largest share of local jobs
Bay City, MI has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 13.84. Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC has 0.6. 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 Chemists 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. Bay City, MI has a location quotient of 13.84, a gap of 13.24 from Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. BLS lists 250 Chemists jobs and a median of $132,480 per year, or $60,140 above Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC.
2. Midland, MI has a location quotient of 11.92, a gap of 11.32 from Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. BLS lists 240 Chemists jobs and a median of $105,710 per year, or $33,370 above Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC.
3. Durham-Chapel Hill, NC has a location quotient of 6.24, a gap of 5.64 from Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. BLS lists 1,140 Chemists jobs and a median of $81,580 per year, or $9,240 above Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC.
Job scale and share
How common Chemists is in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC
BLS lists 70 Chemists jobs in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. It also lists 0.32 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 0.6. A value of 1 means Chemists 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.
Chemists beside other roles in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC
The all-occupations median in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC is $45,990 per year. The Chemists median is $72,340 per year. Chemists is 57.3% 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 Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC. 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 Chemists. 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. First-Line Supervisors of Production and Operating Workers, SOC 51-1011, has a Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC median of $75,570 per year. BLS lists 1,690 jobs and a location quotient of 1.68.
2. Business Operations Specialists, All Other, SOC 13-1199, has a Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC median of $79,440 per year. BLS lists 2,120 jobs and a location quotient of 1.31.
3. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education, SOC 25-2021, has a Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC median of $63,000 per year. BLS lists 2,400 jobs and a location quotient of 1.16.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC table, at 8,710 jobs. Chemists has 70 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 231,930. 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 Chemists's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 8,710 jobs in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC, a gap of 8,640 from Chemists. Its median is $26,620 per year, or $45,720 below Chemists. Its location quotient is 1.52.
2. Retail Salespersons has 6,930 jobs in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC, a gap of 6,860 from Chemists. Its median is $29,350 per year, or $42,990 below Chemists. Its location quotient is 1.19.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC
Civil Engineers has the highest published median in the bounded Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC role table, at $103,010 per year. Chemists has $72,340 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $45,990 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. Civil Engineers has a median of $103,010 per year in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC, or $30,670 above Chemists. BLS lists 2,000 jobs, compared with 70 for Chemists. Its location quotient is 3.65.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $102,360 per year in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC, or $30,020 above Chemists. BLS lists 4,230 jobs, compared with 70 for Chemists. Its location quotient is 0.81.
3. Registered Nurses has a median of $87,760 per year in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC, or $15,420 above Chemists. BLS lists 6,880 jobs, compared with 70 for Chemists. Its location quotient is 1.36.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC
Civil Engineers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC role table, at 3.65. Chemists has 0.6. 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 Chemists with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Civil Engineers has a location quotient of 3.65 in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC, a gap of 3.05 from Chemists. BLS lists 2,000 jobs and a median of $103,010 per year, or $30,670 above Chemists.
2. Childcare Workers has a location quotient of 2.59 in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC, a gap of 1.99 from Chemists. BLS lists 2,000 jobs and a median of $28,730 per year, or $43,610 below Chemists.
3. Security Guards has a location quotient of 1.76 in Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC, a gap of 1.16 from Chemists. BLS lists 3,370 jobs and a median of $33,450 per year, or $38,890 below Chemists.
Price-level view
What $72,340 may mean after the Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC is 91.9. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 8.1% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $72,340 Chemists median by 91.9 divided by 100. The result is $78,713 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 70.6. Goods are 96.3. Utilities are 89.5. 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.
How much care to use with the Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC row
The employment RSE for this Chemists row is 14.5%. The mean-wage RSE is 4.1%. 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 70 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $83,480 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.
Use Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Chemists. It uses a Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC 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. Job cards can change without changing this guide. They do not count toward the 1,500-word content floor. A listing range does not replace the $72,340 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 Chemists row for Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC 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 70 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.6 is not a growth score. Rank 187 of 212 is not a place score. The 91.9 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 19-2031 in BLS area 12260. 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 70 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.
