WageScope divides the published Cooks, Short Order 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 35-2015 and BLS area 41420.

5.2%
Salem, OR was 2.7% below the U.S. median for Cooks, Short Order. It ranked 90 of 237 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Cooks, Short Order median says in Salem, OR
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Cooks, Short Order median in Salem, OR at $34,910 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 35-2015 and BLS area 41420.
BLS lists 110 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 $35,740 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Salem, OR's Cooks, Short Order median is 2.7% below the U.S. Cooks, Short Order median of $35,880 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 35-2015 and area 41420. SOC 35-2015 names Cooks, Short Order. Area 41420 names Salem, OR. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 35-2015/41420 row reports 110 wage and salary jobs, 0.57 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.64 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 35-2015/41420, the annual median is $34,910 per year, while the matching mean is $35,740 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 41420 facts behind this Cooks, Short Order page
Area 41420 reports 188,620 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $67,920. Its annual median is $55,310. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 35-2015 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Salem, OR runs from $34,830 at the 10th percentile to $118,380 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $40,960. The median is $55,310. The 75th percentile is $79,750. This is a place check, not a pay range for Cooks, Short Order.
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 41420. They do not show related skills or a path into Cooks, Short Order.
1. Area 41420, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 7,040 jobs, $45,200 annual median, 37.32 jobs per 1,000, and 1.35 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Salem, OR wage ladder for Cooks, Short Order
The 10th percentile is $29,960 per year. The 25th percentile is $31,090 per year. The median is $34,910 per year. The 75th percentile is $37,980 per year. The 90th percentile is $41,950 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 $31,090 per year to $37,980 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $11,990. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Salem, OR has a annual median of $34,910 per year. Oregon has $38,550 per year. The U.S. row has $35,880 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Salem, OR is 9.4% below Oregon on the same published median. Salem, OR 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 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.
Salem, OR ranks 90 of 237 among metro areas with a published annual median for Cooks, Short Order. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 90 of 237 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.
87. Columbus, OH has a Cooks, Short Order median of $35,200 per year, 1,100 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.12.
88. Durham-Chapel Hill, NC has a Cooks, Short Order median of $35,040 per year, 150 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.49.
89. Spokane-Spokane Valley, WA has a Cooks, Short Order median of $35,030 per year, Not published estimated jobs, and a location quotient of Not published.
91. Bend, OR has a Cooks, Short Order median of $34,880 per year, 110 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.17.
Pay leaders
Where Cooks, Short Order medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 35-2015, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Corvallis, OR has the highest published median in this set, at $54,020 per year. Salem, OR sits at $34,910 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Cooks, Short Order 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. Corvallis, OR has a Cooks, Short Order median of $54,020 per year, or $19,110 above Salem, OR. BLS lists 50 jobs there, compared with 110 in Salem, OR. The location quotient is 1.49.
2. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA has a Cooks, Short Order median of $50,870 per year, or $15,960 above Salem, OR. BLS lists 830 jobs there, compared with 110 in Salem, OR. The location quotient is 0.45.
3. Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ has a Cooks, Short Order median of $50,180 per year, or $15,270 above Salem, OR. BLS lists Not published jobs there, compared with 110 in Salem, OR. The location quotient is Not published.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Cooks, Short Order jobs
Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has the largest published metro job estimate for Cooks, Short Order in this same-source set, at 12,410 jobs. Salem, OR has 110. 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. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 12,410 estimated Cooks, Short Order jobs, a gap of 12,300 jobs from Salem, OR. Its median is $43,680 per year, or $8,770 above Salem, OR. Its location quotient is 2.22.
2. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 9,990 estimated Cooks, Short Order jobs, a gap of 9,880 jobs from Salem, OR. Its median is $35,360 per year, or $450 above Salem, OR. Its location quotient is 1.18.
Local-share leaders
Where Cooks, Short Order takes the largest share of local jobs
Rapid City, SD has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 6.31. Salem, OR has 0.64. 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 Cooks, Short Order 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. Rapid City, SD has a location quotient of 6.31, a gap of 5.67 from Salem, OR. BLS lists 420 Cooks, Short Order jobs and a median of $32,670 per year, or $2,240 below Salem, OR.
2. Guayama, PR has a location quotient of 5.1, a gap of 4.46 from Salem, OR. BLS lists 60 Cooks, Short Order jobs and a median of $22,140 per year, or $12,770 below Salem, OR.
3. Sioux Falls, SD-MN has a location quotient of 4.12, a gap of 3.48 from Salem, OR. BLS lists 660 Cooks, Short Order jobs and a median of $35,570 per year, or $660 above Salem, OR.
Job scale and share
How common Cooks, Short Order is in Salem, OR
BLS lists 110 Cooks, Short Order jobs in Salem, OR. It also lists 0.57 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 0.64. A value of 1 means Cooks, Short Order 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.
Cooks, Short Order beside other roles in Salem, OR
The all-occupations median in Salem, OR is $55,310 per year. The Cooks, Short Order median is $34,910 per year. Cooks, Short Order is 36.9% 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 Salem, OR. 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 Cooks, Short Order. 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. Fast Food and Counter Workers, SOC 35-3023, has a Salem, OR median of $34,520 per year. BLS lists 5,880 jobs and a location quotient of 1.26.
2. Cashiers, SOC 41-2011, has a Salem, OR median of $34,340 per year. BLS lists 3,480 jobs and a location quotient of 0.93.
3. Retail Salespersons, SOC 41-2031, has a Salem, OR median of $35,760 per year. BLS lists 4,550 jobs and a location quotient of 0.96.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Salem, OR
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Salem, OR table, at 7,040 jobs. Cooks, Short Order has 110 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 188,620. 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 Cooks, Short Order's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 7,040 jobs in Salem, OR, a gap of 6,930 from Cooks, Short Order. Its median is $45,200 per year, or $10,290 above Cooks, Short Order. Its location quotient is 1.35.
2. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 5,880 jobs in Salem, OR, a gap of 5,770 from Cooks, Short Order. Its median is $34,520 per year, or $390 below Cooks, Short Order. Its location quotient is 1.26.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Salem, OR
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Salem, OR role table, at $131,750 per year. Cooks, Short Order has $34,910 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $55,310 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. Registered Nurses has a median of $131,750 per year in Salem, OR, or $96,840 above Cooks, Short Order. BLS lists 4,010 jobs, compared with 110 for Cooks, Short Order. Its location quotient is 0.98.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $114,430 per year in Salem, OR, or $79,520 above Cooks, Short Order. BLS lists 3,490 jobs, compared with 110 for Cooks, Short Order. Its location quotient is 0.82.
3. Project Management Specialists has a median of $102,730 per year in Salem, OR, or $67,820 above Cooks, Short Order. BLS lists 1,420 jobs, compared with 110 for Cooks, Short Order. Its location quotient is 1.1.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Salem, OR
Personal Care and Service Workers, All Other has the highest location quotient in the bounded Salem, OR role table, at 39.13. Cooks, Short Order has 0.64. 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 Cooks, Short Order with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Personal Care and Service Workers, All Other has a location quotient of 39.13 in Salem, OR, a gap of 38.49 from Cooks, Short Order. BLS lists 2,870 jobs and a median of $41,600 per year, or $6,690 above Cooks, Short Order.
2. Farmworkers and Laborers, Crop, Nursery, and Greenhouse has a location quotient of 7.92 in Salem, OR, a gap of 7.28 from Cooks, Short Order. BLS lists 2,550 jobs and a median of $33,450 per year, or $1,460 below Cooks, Short Order.
Price-level view
What $34,910 may mean after the Salem, OR price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Salem, OR is 103.6. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 3.6% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $34,910 Cooks, Short Order median by 103.6 divided by 100. The result is $33,681 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 110.3. Goods are 105.3. Utilities are 104.7. Other services are 100.3. 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 Cooks, Short Order row is 32.8%. The mean-wage RSE is 6.4%. 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 110 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $35,740 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 Cooks, Short Order. It uses a Salem, OR 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 $34,910 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 Cooks, Short Order row for Salem, OR 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 110 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.64 is not a growth score. Rank 90 of 237 is not a place score. The 103.6 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 35-2015 in BLS area 41420. 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 110 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.
