BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Rochester, NY was 97, or 3% below the national price level. Its housing index was 87.5.
National-price-dollar proxy

WageScope divides the published Chemists 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 19-2031 and BLS area 40380.
Questions, answered
Chemists pay in Rochester, NY: common questions
What is the median wage for Chemists in Rochester, NY?
The May 2025 BLS OEWS release published a median of $84,030 per year for Chemists in Rochester, NY. This describes an occupation-area estimate, not a promised offer or an individual's pay.

Rochester, NY was 7.9% below the U.S. median for Chemists. It ranked 111 of 212 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 Chemists median in Rochester, NY at $84,030 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 40380.
BLS lists 300 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 $97,950 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Rochester, NY's Chemists median is 7.9% 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 40380. SOC 19-2031 names Chemists. Area 40380 names Rochester, NY. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 19-2031/40380 row reports 300 wage and salary jobs, 0.61 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.14 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 19-2031/40380, the annual median is $84,030 per year, while the matching mean is $97,950 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 40380 reports 494,280 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $67,420. Its annual median is $51,210. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 19-2031 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Rochester, NY runs from $34,020 at the 10th percentile to $112,380 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $38,010. The median is $51,210. The 75th percentile is $78,760. 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 40380. They do not show related skills or a path into Chemists.
1. Area 40380, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 17,070 jobs, $35,600 annual median, 34.54 jobs per 1,000, and 1.25 location quotient.
2. Area 40380, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 12,440 jobs, $34,650 annual median, 25.16 jobs per 1,000, and 1 location quotient.
3. Area 40380, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 12,340 jobs, $86,570 annual median, 24.98 jobs per 1,000, and 1.15 location quotient.
4. Area 40380, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 11,310 jobs, $33,430 annual median, 22.88 jobs per 1,000, and 0.92 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Rochester, NY wage ladder for Chemists
The 10th percentile is $67,090 per year. The 25th percentile is $73,790 per year. The median is $84,030 per year. The 75th percentile is $107,960 per year. The 90th percentile is $150,580 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 $73,790 per year to $107,960 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $83,490. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Rochester, NY has a annual median of $84,030 per year. New York has $90,600 per year. The U.S. row has $91,240 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Rochester, NY is 7.3% below New York on the same published median. Rochester, NY is 7.9% 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.
Rochester, NY ranks 111 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 111 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.
108. Ames, IA has a Chemists median of $84,300 per year, 40 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.37.
109. Raleigh-Cary, NC has a Chemists median of $84,150 per year, 740 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.86.
110. Springfield, IL has a Chemists median of $84,110 per year, 40 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.66.
112. Kansas City, MO-KS has a Chemists median of $83,420 per year, 550 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.94.
113. Waterbury-Shelton, CT has a Chemists median of $83,420 per year, 50 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.62.
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. Rochester, NY sits at $84,030 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 $60,650 above Rochester, NY. BLS lists 2,490 jobs there, compared with 300 in Rochester, NY. The location quotient is 1.49.
2. Bay City, MI has a Chemists median of $132,480 per year, or $48,450 above Rochester, NY. BLS lists 250 jobs there, compared with 300 in Rochester, NY. 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. Rochester, NY has 300. 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 6,450 jobs from Rochester, NY. Its median is $85,150 per year, or $1,120 above Rochester, NY. Its location quotient is 1.34.
2. Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington, PA-NJ-DE-MD has 4,520 estimated Chemists jobs, a gap of 4,220 jobs from Rochester, NY. Its median is $95,440 per year, or $11,410 above Rochester, NY. 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. Rochester, NY has 1.14. 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 12.70 from Rochester, NY. BLS lists 250 Chemists jobs and a median of $132,480 per year, or $48,450 above Rochester, NY.
2. Midland, MI has a location quotient of 11.92, a gap of 10.78 from Rochester, NY. BLS lists 240 Chemists jobs and a median of $105,710 per year, or $21,680 above Rochester, NY.
3. Durham-Chapel Hill, NC has a location quotient of 6.24, a gap of 5.10 from Rochester, NY. BLS lists 1,140 Chemists jobs and a median of $81,580 per year, or $2,450 below Rochester, NY.
Job scale and share
How common Chemists is in Rochester, NY
BLS lists 300 Chemists jobs in Rochester, NY. It also lists 0.61 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 1.14. A value of 1 means Chemists 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.
The all-occupations median in Rochester, NY is $51,210 per year. The Chemists median is $84,030 per year. Chemists is 64.1% 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 Rochester, NY. 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. Registered Nurses, SOC 29-1141, has a Rochester, NY median of $86,570 per year. BLS lists 12,340 jobs and a location quotient of 1.15.
2. Accountants and Auditors, SOC 13-2011, has a Rochester, NY median of $80,890 per year. BLS lists 4,370 jobs and a location quotient of 0.95.
3. Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education, SOC 25-2031, has a Rochester, NY median of $76,190 per year. BLS lists 4,430 jobs and a location quotient of 1.31.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Rochester, NY
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Rochester, NY table, at 17,070 jobs. Chemists has 300 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 494,280. 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. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 17,070 jobs in Rochester, NY, a gap of 16,770 from Chemists. Its median is $35,600 per year, or $48,430 below Chemists. Its location quotient is 1.25.
2. Retail Salespersons has 12,440 jobs in Rochester, NY, a gap of 12,140 from Chemists. Its median is $34,650 per year, or $49,380 below Chemists. Its location quotient is 1.
3. Registered Nurses has 12,340 jobs in Rochester, NY, a gap of 12,040 from Chemists. Its median is $86,570 per year, or $2,540 above Chemists. Its location quotient is 1.15.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Rochester, NY
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Rochester, NY role table, at $122,770 per year. Chemists has $84,030 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $51,210 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. Software Developers has a median of $122,770 per year in Rochester, NY, or $38,740 above Chemists. BLS lists 4,650 jobs, compared with 300 for Chemists. Its location quotient is 0.87.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $103,690 per year in Rochester, NY, or $19,660 above Chemists. BLS lists 9,230 jobs, compared with 300 for Chemists. Its location quotient is 0.83.
3. Project Management Specialists has a median of $103,520 per year in Rochester, NY, or $19,490 above Chemists. BLS lists 3,350 jobs, compared with 300 for Chemists. Its location quotient is 0.99.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Rochester, NY
Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary has the highest location quotient in the bounded Rochester, NY role table, at 1.79. Chemists has 1.14. 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. Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary has a location quotient of 1.79 in Rochester, NY, a gap of 0.65 from Chemists. BLS lists 8,090 jobs and a median of $36,240 per year, or $47,790 below Chemists.
2. Licensed Practical and Licensed Vocational Nurses has a location quotient of 1.61 in Rochester, NY, a gap of 0.47 from Chemists. BLS lists 3,330 jobs and a median of $62,060 per year, or $21,970 below Chemists.
3. Medical Secretaries and Administrative Assistants has a location quotient of 1.48 in Rochester, NY, a gap of 0.34 from Chemists. BLS lists 4,510 jobs and a median of $44,380 per year, or $39,650 below Chemists.
Price-level view
What $84,030 may mean after the Rochester, NY price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Rochester, NY is 97.0. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 3.0% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $84,030 Chemists median by 97.0 divided by 100. The result is $86,598 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 87.5. Goods are 99.7. Utilities are 133.2. Other services are 97.8. 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 Chemists row is 4.4%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.4%. 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 300 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $97,950 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 Chemists. It uses a Rochester, NY 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 $84,030 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 Rochester, NY 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 300 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.14 is not a growth score. Rank 111 of 212 is not a place score. The 97.0 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 40380. 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.
