What the Correctional Officers and Jailers median says in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Correctional Officers and Jailers median in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA at $50,170 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 33-3012 and BLS area 13980.
BLS lists 150 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 $52,230 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA's Correctional Officers and Jailers median is 14.9% below the U.S. Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $58,940 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.

Like-for-like rank
Where Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA sits for Correctional Officers and Jailers
Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA ranks 183 of 281 among metro areas with a published annual median for Correctional Officers and Jailers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 183 of 281 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.

Pay leaders
Where Correctional Officers and Jailers medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 33-3012, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has the highest published median in this set, at $132,670 per year. Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA sits at $50,170 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Correctional Officers and Jailers 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.
1. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $132,670 per year, or $82,500 above Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. BLS lists 1,050 jobs there, compared with 150 in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. The location quotient is 0.38.
2. Salinas, CA has a Correctional Officers and Jailers median of $109,620 per year, or $59,450 above Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. BLS lists 1,510 jobs there, compared with 150 in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. The location quotient is 3.31.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Correctional Officers and Jailers in this same-source set, at 14,730 jobs. Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA has 150. 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 14,730 estimated Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs, a gap of 14,580 jobs from Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. Its median is $93,220 per year, or $43,050 above Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. Its location quotient is 0.63.
2. Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ has 8,920 estimated Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs, a gap of 8,770 jobs from Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. Its median is $57,280 per year, or $7,110 above Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. Its location quotient is 1.53.
Local-share leaders
Where Correctional Officers and Jailers takes the largest share of local jobs
Wildwood-The Villages, FL has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 9.71. Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA has 0.84. 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 Correctional Officers and Jailers 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. Wildwood-The Villages, FL has a location quotient of 9.71, a gap of 8.87 from Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. BLS lists 980 Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs and a median of $67,770 per year, or $17,600 above Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA.

Job scale and share
How common Correctional Officers and Jailers is in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA
BLS lists 150 Correctional Officers and Jailers jobs in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. It also lists 2.05 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 0.84. A value of 1 means Correctional Officers and Jailers 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.
Local job mix
Correctional Officers and Jailers beside other roles in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA
The all-occupations median in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA is $48,120 per year. The Correctional Officers and Jailers median is $50,170 per year.

The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA. 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 Correctional Officers and Jailers. 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.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA
Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA table, at 2,450 jobs. Correctional Officers and Jailers has 150 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 74,070. 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 Correctional Officers and Jailers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has 2,450 jobs in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA, a gap of 2,300 from Correctional Officers and Jailers. Its median is $45,950 per year, or $4,220 below Correctional Officers and Jailers. Its location quotient is 3.67.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA role table, at $111,630 per year. Correctional Officers and Jailers has $50,170 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $48,120 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 $111,630 per year in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA, or $61,460 above Correctional Officers and Jailers. BLS lists 590 jobs, compared with 150 for Correctional Officers and Jailers. Its location quotient is 0.73.

Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA
Electrical, Electronic, and Electromechanical Assemblers, Except Coil Winders, Tapers, and Finishers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA role table, at 4.75. Correctional Officers and Jailers has 0.84. 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 Correctional Officers and Jailers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Electrical, Electronic, and Electromechanical Assemblers, Except Coil Winders, Tapers, and Finishers has a location quotient of 4.75 in Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA, a gap of 3.91 from Correctional Officers and Jailers.

Price-level view
What $50,170 may mean after the Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA is 92.7. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 7.3% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $50,170 Correctional Officers and Jailers median by 92.7 divided by 100. The result is $54,115 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 74.4. Goods are 96.8. Utilities are 88.1. Other services are 98.6. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
Data care
How much care to use with the Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA row
The employment RSE for this Correctional Officers and Jailers row is 39%. The mean-wage RSE is 4.7%. 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 150 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $52,230 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.
Job and résumé path
Use Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Correctional Officers and Jailers. It uses a Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA 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 $50,170 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.
Limits
What the Correctional Officers and Jailers row for Blacksburg-Christiansburg-Radford, VA 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 150 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.84 is not a growth score. Rank 183 of 281 is not a place score. The 92.7 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 33-3012 in BLS area 13980. 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.
