Child, Family, and School Social Workers in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area: wage guide
Use the local pay range, same-source pay figures, job scale, price level, and survey limits as separate facts. This guide stays tied to SOC 21-1021 and BLS area 4800002.
What the Child, Family, and School Social Workers median says in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Child, Family, and School Social Workers median in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area at $57,970 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 21-1021 and BLS area 4800002.
BLS lists 410 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 $56,530 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area's Child, Family, and School Social Workers median is 2.7% below the U.S. Child, Family, and School Social Workers median of $59,550 on the same published median. Both values use the same job code and source date. They do not account for prices, taxes, benefits, hours, or your work history.
Read source key 21-1021 with area 4800002
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 21-1021 and area 4800002. SOC 21-1021 names Child, Family, and School Social Workers. Area 4800002 names North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 21-1021/4800002 row has 410 wage and salary jobs. There are 1.5 for each 1,000 local jobs. The location quotient is 0.59. Each value stays under the same job and area codes.
For 21-1021/4800002, the annual median is $57,970 per year, while the matching mean is $56,530 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

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 4800002. They do not show related skills or a path into Child, Family, and School Social Workers.

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 $45,000 per year to $65,220 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $34,630. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $57,970 per year. Texas has $55,680 per year. The U.S. row has $59,550 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area is 4.1% above Texas on the same published median. North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area is 2.7% 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 benchmarks, 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 North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area sits for Child, Family, and School Social Workers
North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area ranks 55 of 133 among nonmetro areas with a published annual median for Child, Family, and School Social Workers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 55 of 133 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.
- 52. East Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. The Child, Family, and School Social Workers median is $58,070 per year. BLS estimates 460 jobs. The location quotient is 1.28.
- 53. West Tennessee nonmetropolitan area. The Child, Family, and School Social Workers median is $58,020 per year. BLS estimates 330 jobs. The location quotient is 1.12.

Where Child, Family, and School Social Workers medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 21-1021, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Maryland nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $79,730 per year. North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area sits at $57,970 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Child, Family, and School Social Workers 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 limits, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.

Where BLS counts the most Child, Family, and School Social Workers jobs
Southeast Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Child, Family, and School Social Workers in this same-source set, at 1,160 jobs. North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has 410. 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. Southeast Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area has 1,160 estimated Child, Family, and School Social Workers jobs, a gap of 750 jobs from North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area.

How common Child, Family, and School Social Workers is in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists 410 Child, Family, and School Social Workers jobs in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. It also lists 1.5 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 0.59. A value of 1 means Child, Family, and School Social Workers 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.
Child, Family, and School Social Workers beside other roles in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
The all-occupations median in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area is $44,180 per year. The Child, Family, and School Social Workers median is $57,970 per year. Child, Family, and School Social Workers is 31.2% 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 North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. 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 Child, Family, and School Social Workers. 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. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education, SOC 25-2021, has a North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area median of $59,560 per year. BLS lists 2,940 jobs and a location quotient of 1.19.

Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area table, at 12,240 jobs. Child, Family, and School Social Workers has 410 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 275,670. 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 Child, Family, and School Social Workers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
- 1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 12,240 jobs in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 11,830 from Child, Family, and School Social Workers. Its median is $23,560 per year, or $34,410 below Child, Family, and School Social Workers. Its location quotient is 1.79.

Published role medians around North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area role table, at $81,480 per year. Child, Family, and School Social Workers has $57,970 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $44,180 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.

What $57,970 may mean after the North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $57,970 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 Child, Family, and School Social Workers with the U.S. or with like nonmetro areas on the same BLS metric. Keep that as a nominal wage comparison. Add price-level context only when an exact reviewed row exists.
How much care to use with the North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Child, Family, and School Social Workers row is 8.6%. The mean-wage RSE is 2.4%. 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 410 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $56,530 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 North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Child, Family, and School Social Workers. It uses a North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area 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 $57,970 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 Child, Family, and School Social Workers row for North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area 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 410 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.59 is not a growth score. Rank 55 of 133 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 21-1021 in BLS area 4800002. 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.
