WageScope divides the published Editors 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 27-3041 and BLS area 13380.

Bellingham, WA was 20.1% below the U.S. median for Editors. It ranked 118 of 182 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 Editors median in Bellingham, WA at $62,290 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 27-3041 and BLS area 13380.
BLS lists 30 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 $71,050 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Bellingham, WA's Editors median is 20.1% below the U.S. Editors median of $77,920 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 27-3041 and area 13380. SOC 27-3041 names Editors. Area 13380 names Bellingham, WA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 27-3041/13380 row reports 30 wage and salary jobs, 0.33 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.56 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 27-3041/13380, the annual median is $62,290 per year, while the matching mean is $71,050 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 13380 reports 91,390 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $71,310. Its annual median is $57,820. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 27-3041 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Bellingham, WA runs from $37,420 at the 10th percentile to $125,170 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $44,310. The median is $57,820. The 75th percentile is $83,690. This is a place check, not a pay range for Editors.
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 13380. They do not show related skills or a path into Editors.
1. Area 13380, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 2,830 jobs, $37,030 annual median, 31.02 jobs per 1,000, and 1.25 location quotient.
2. Area 13380, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 2,830 jobs, $37,840 annual median, 30.92 jobs per 1,000, and 1.23 location quotient.
3. Area 13380, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 2,350 jobs, $44,080 annual median, 25.72 jobs per 1,000, and 0.93 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Bellingham, WA wage ladder for Editors
The 10th percentile is $52,180 per year. The 25th percentile is $55,360 per year. The median is $62,290 per year. The 75th percentile is $83,800 per year. The 90th percentile is $95,620 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 $55,360 per year to $83,800 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $43,440. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Bellingham, WA with its state and the U.S.
Bellingham, WA has a annual median of $62,290 per year. Washington has $77,850 per year. The U.S. row has $77,920 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Bellingham, WA is 20.0% below Washington on the same published median. Bellingham, WA is 20.1% 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.
Bellingham, WA ranks 118 of 182 among metro areas with a published annual median for Editors. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 118 of 182 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.
115. Anchorage, AK has a Editors median of $62,400 per year, 40 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.35.
116. Bozeman, MT has a Editors median of $62,380 per year, 30 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.81.
117. Sioux Falls, SD-MN has a Editors median of $62,310 per year, 50 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.45.
119. Manchester-Nashua, NH has a Editors median of $62,200 per year, 70 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.59.
120. Champaign-Urbana, IL has a Editors median of $62,030 per year, 100 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.65.
Pay leaders
Where Editors medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 27-3041, 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 $117,580 per year. Bellingham, WA sits at $62,290 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Editors 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. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Editors median of $117,580 per year, or $55,290 above Bellingham, WA. BLS lists 560 jobs there, compared with 30 in Bellingham, WA. The location quotient is 0.83.
2. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a Editors median of $102,940 per year, or $40,650 above Bellingham, WA. BLS lists 2,040 jobs there, compared with 30 in Bellingham, WA. The location quotient is 1.46.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Editors jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Editors in this same-source set, at 16,600 jobs. Bellingham, WA has 30. 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 16,600 estimated Editors jobs, a gap of 16,570 jobs from Bellingham, WA. Its median is $102,120 per year, or $39,830 above Bellingham, WA. Its location quotient is 2.97.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 8,830 estimated Editors jobs, a gap of 8,800 jobs from Bellingham, WA. Its median is $100,050 per year, or $37,760 above Bellingham, WA. Its location quotient is 2.39.
Local-share leaders
Where Editors takes the largest share of local jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 2.97. Bellingham, WA has 0.56. 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 Editors 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. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has a location quotient of 2.97, a gap of 2.41 from Bellingham, WA. BLS lists 16,600 Editors jobs and a median of $102,120 per year, or $39,830 above Bellingham, WA.
2. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has a location quotient of 2.96, a gap of 2.40 from Bellingham, WA. BLS lists 5,470 Editors jobs and a median of $84,800 per year, or $22,510 above Bellingham, WA.
3. Waterbury-Shelton, CT has a location quotient of 2.47, a gap of 1.91 from Bellingham, WA. BLS lists 230 Editors jobs and a median of $87,150 per year, or $24,860 above Bellingham, WA.
Job scale and share
How common Editors is in Bellingham, WA
BLS lists 30 Editors jobs in Bellingham, WA. It also lists 0.33 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 0.56. A value of 1 means Editors 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.
The all-occupations median in Bellingham, WA is $57,820 per year. The Editors median is $62,290 per year. Editors is 7.7% 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 Bellingham, WA. 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 Editors. 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. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers, SOC 53-3032, has a Bellingham, WA median of $61,890 per year. BLS lists 1,200 jobs and a location quotient of 0.99.
2. Construction Laborers, SOC 47-2061, has a Bellingham, WA median of $58,360 per year. BLS lists 1,030 jobs and a location quotient of 1.6.
3. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General, SOC 49-9071, has a Bellingham, WA median of $58,090 per year. BLS lists 880 jobs and a location quotient of 0.98.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Bellingham, WA
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Bellingham, WA table, at 2,830 jobs. Editors has 30 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 91,390. 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 Editors's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 2,830 jobs in Bellingham, WA, a gap of 2,800 from Editors. Its median is $37,030 per year, or $25,260 below Editors. Its location quotient is 1.25.
2. Retail Salespersons has 2,830 jobs in Bellingham, WA, a gap of 2,800 from Editors. Its median is $37,840 per year, or $24,450 below Editors. Its location quotient is 1.23.
3. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 2,350 jobs in Bellingham, WA, a gap of 2,320 from Editors. Its median is $44,080 per year, or $18,210 below Editors. Its location quotient is 0.93.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Bellingham, WA
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Bellingham, WA role table, at $125,840 per year. Editors has $62,290 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $57,820 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. General and Operations Managers has a median of $125,840 per year in Bellingham, WA, or $63,550 above Editors. BLS lists 1,270 jobs, compared with 30 for Editors. Its location quotient is 0.62.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Construction Trades and Extraction Workers has a median of $107,830 per year in Bellingham, WA, or $45,540 above Editors. BLS lists 730 jobs, compared with 30 for Editors. Its location quotient is 1.53.
3. Project Management Specialists has a median of $103,400 per year in Bellingham, WA, or $41,110 above Editors. BLS lists 660 jobs, compared with 30 for Editors. Its location quotient is 1.06.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Bellingham, WA
Carpenters has the highest location quotient in the bounded Bellingham, WA role table, at 2.41. Editors has 0.56. 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 Editors with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Carpenters has a location quotient of 2.41 in Bellingham, WA, a gap of 1.85 from Editors. BLS lists 950 jobs and a median of $73,260 per year, or $10,970 above Editors.
2. Construction Laborers has a location quotient of 1.6 in Bellingham, WA, a gap of 1.04 from Editors. BLS lists 1,030 jobs and a median of $58,360 per year, or $3,930 below Editors.
3. First-Line Supervisors of Construction Trades and Extraction Workers has a location quotient of 1.53 in Bellingham, WA, a gap of 0.97 from Editors. BLS lists 730 jobs and a median of $107,830 per year, or $45,540 above Editors.
Price-level view
What $62,290 may mean after the Bellingham, WA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Bellingham, WA is 103.3. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 3.3% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $62,290 Editors median by 103.3 divided by 100. The result is $60,280 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 112.9. Goods are 105.0. Utilities are 99.9. Other services are 99.5. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Editors row is 14.7%. The mean-wage RSE is 8%. 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 30 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $71,050 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 Editors. It uses a Bellingham, WA 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 $62,290 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 Editors row for Bellingham, WA 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 30 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.56 is not a growth score. Rank 118 of 182 is not a place score. The 103.3 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 27-3041 in BLS area 13380. 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.
