Maryland was 16.3% above the U.S. median for Electricians. It ranked 20 of 54 state areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
Price-level context
What the local median may buy
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Maryland was 105, or 5% above the national price level. Its housing index was 121.1.

WageScope divides the published Electricians 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 47-2111 and BLS area 24.
Questions, answered
Electricians pay in Maryland: common questions
What is the median wage for Electricians in Maryland?
The May 2025 BLS OEWS release published a median of $73,490 per year for Electricians in Maryland. This describes an occupation-area estimate, not a promised offer or an individual's pay.
Is Electricians pay higher in Maryland than nationally?
Maryland's published median was 16.3% above the U.S. median for the same occupation and release.
Does the wage estimate adjust for cost of living in Maryland?
No. The BLS wage is nominal. WageScope separately shows BEA's 2024 all-items Regional Price Parity of 105.0 and a transparent national-price-dollar proxy.
How many Electricians jobs does BLS estimate in Maryland?
BLS published an employment estimate of 13,690 wage and salary jobs for this exact row. It is a survey estimate, not a current opening count or forecast.

The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Electricians median in Maryland at $73,490 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 47-2111 and BLS area 24.
BLS lists 13,690 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 $75,450 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Maryland's Electricians median is 16.3% above the U.S. Electricians median of $63,190 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 47-2111 and area 24. SOC 47-2111 names Electricians. Area 24 names Maryland. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 47-2111/24 row reports 13,690 wage and salary jobs, 4.95 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.02 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 47-2111/24, the annual median is $73,490 per year, while the matching mean is $75,450 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 24 reports 2,763,030 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $77,580. Its annual median is $59,510. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 47-2111 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Maryland runs from $34,520 at the 10th percentile to $145,410 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $39,440. The median is $59,510. The 75th percentile is $98,010. This is a place check, not a pay range for Electricians.
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 24. They do not show related skills or a path into Electricians.
1. Area 24, SOC 11-1021, General and Operations Managers: 96,740 jobs, $117,930 annual median, 35.01 jobs per 1,000, and 1.55 location quotient.
2. Area 24, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 79,320 jobs, $35,510 annual median, 28.71 jobs per 1,000, and 1.15 location quotient.
3. Area 24, SOC 43-6014, Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive: 54,890 jobs, $48,680 annual median, 19.87 jobs per 1,000, and 1.81 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Maryland wage ladder for Electricians
The 10th percentile is $46,450 per year. The 25th percentile is $57,680 per year. The median is $73,490 per year. The 75th percentile is $96,010 per year. The 90th percentile is $118,370 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 $57,680 per year to $96,010 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $71,920. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Maryland has a annual median of $73,490 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $63,190 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Maryland. Maryland is 16.3% above 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.
Maryland ranks 20 of 54 among states and territories with a published annual median for Electricians. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 20 of 54 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.
17. Maine has a Electricians median of $75,380 per year, 3,780 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.21.
18. Rhode Island has a Electricians median of $74,090 per year, 2,420 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.99.
19. Nevada has a Electricians median of $73,570 per year, 8,350 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.11.
21. Indiana has a Electricians median of $68,490 per year, 19,020 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.22.
22. Pennsylvania has a Electricians median of $67,600 per year, 22,730 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.77.
Pay leaders
Where Electricians medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 47-2111, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Oregon has the highest published median in this set, at $101,310 per year. Maryland sits at $73,490 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Electricians 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. Oregon has a Electricians median of $101,310 per year, or $27,820 above Maryland. BLS lists 10,590 jobs there, compared with 13,690 in Maryland. The location quotient is 1.11.
2. Illinois has a Electricians median of $99,560 per year, or $26,070 above Maryland. BLS lists 23,120 jobs there, compared with 13,690 in Maryland. The location quotient is 0.78.
3. Hawaii has a Electricians median of $96,460 per year, or $22,970 above Maryland. BLS lists 3,070 jobs there, compared with 13,690 in Maryland. The location quotient is 1.01.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Electricians jobs
Texas has the largest published state job estimate for Electricians in this same-source set, at 76,770 jobs. Maryland has 13,690. 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. Texas has 76,770 estimated Electricians jobs, a gap of 63,080 jobs from Maryland. Its median is $58,570 per year, or $14,920 below Maryland. Its location quotient is 1.12.
2. California has 73,310 estimated Electricians jobs, a gap of 59,620 jobs from Maryland. Its median is $76,160 per year, or $2,670 above Maryland. Its location quotient is 0.83.
3. Florida has 49,700 estimated Electricians jobs, a gap of 36,010 jobs from Maryland. Its median is $57,250 per year, or $16,240 below Maryland. Its location quotient is 1.03.
Local-share leaders
Where Electricians takes the largest share of local jobs
Guam (territory) has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 2.75. Maryland has 1.02. 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 Electricians 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. Guam (territory) has a location quotient of 2.75, a gap of 1.73 from Maryland. BLS lists 890 Electricians jobs and a median of $43,020 per year, or $30,470 below Maryland.
2. Wyoming has a location quotient of 2.16, a gap of 1.14 from Maryland. BLS lists 2,960 Electricians jobs and a median of $76,120 per year, or $2,630 above Maryland.
3. North Dakota has a location quotient of 1.71, a gap of 0.69 from Maryland. BLS lists 3,570 Electricians jobs and a median of $65,710 per year, or $7,780 below Maryland.
Job scale and share
How common Electricians is in Maryland
BLS lists 13,690 Electricians jobs in Maryland. It also lists 4.95 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 1.02. A value of 1 means Electricians has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is the same 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 Maryland is $59,510 per year. The Electricians median is $73,490 per year. Electricians is 23.5% 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 Maryland. 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 Electricians. 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. First-Line Supervisors of Office and Administrative Support Workers, SOC 43-1011, has a Maryland median of $74,140 per year. BLS lists 27,860 jobs and a location quotient of 1.09.
2. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education, SOC 25-2021, has a Maryland median of $77,680 per year. BLS lists 29,610 jobs and a location quotient of 1.2.
3. Sales Representatives of Services, Except Advertising, Insurance, Financial Services, and Travel, SOC 41-3091, has a Maryland median of $63,310 per year. BLS lists 21,580 jobs and a location quotient of 0.97.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Maryland
General and Operations Managers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Maryland table, at 96,740 jobs. Electricians has 13,690 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 2,763,030. 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 Electricians's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. General and Operations Managers has 96,740 jobs in Maryland, a gap of 83,050 from Electricians. Its median is $117,930 per year, or $44,440 above Electricians. Its location quotient is 1.55.
2. Retail Salespersons has 79,320 jobs in Maryland, a gap of 65,630 from Electricians. Its median is $35,510 per year, or $37,980 below Electricians. Its location quotient is 1.15.
3. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has 54,890 jobs in Maryland, a gap of 41,200 from Electricians. Its median is $48,680 per year, or $24,810 below Electricians. Its location quotient is 1.81.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Maryland
Financial Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Maryland role table, at $158,750 per year. Electricians has $73,490 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $59,510 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. Financial Managers has a median of $158,750 per year in Maryland, or $85,260 above Electricians. BLS lists 19,770 jobs, compared with 13,690 for Electricians. Its location quotient is 1.32.
2. Software Developers has a median of $138,680 per year in Maryland, or $65,190 above Electricians. BLS lists 31,350 jobs, compared with 13,690 for Electricians. Its location quotient is 1.05.
3. Management Analysts has a median of $121,680 per year in Maryland, or $48,190 above Electricians. BLS lists 19,170 jobs, compared with 13,690 for Electricians. Its location quotient is 1.2.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Maryland
Business Operations Specialists, All Other has the highest location quotient in the bounded Maryland role table, at 2.06. Electricians has 1.02. 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 Electricians with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Business Operations Specialists, All Other has a location quotient of 2.06 in Maryland, a gap of 1.04 from Electricians. BLS lists 39,820 jobs and a median of $101,500 per year, or $28,010 above Electricians.
2. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has a location quotient of 1.81 in Maryland, a gap of 0.79 from Electricians. BLS lists 54,890 jobs and a median of $48,680 per year, or $24,810 below Electricians.
Price-level view
What $73,490 may mean after the Maryland price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Maryland is 105.0. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 5.0% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $73,490 Electricians median by 105.0 divided by 100. The result is $70,018 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 121.1. Goods are 102.5. Utilities are 110.9. Other services are 101.6. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Electricians row is 6.4%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.9%. 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 13,690 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $75,450 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 Electricians. It uses a Maryland 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 $73,490 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 Electricians row for Maryland 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 13,690 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.02 is not a growth score. Rank 20 of 54 is not a place score. The 105.0 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 47-2111 in BLS area 24. 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.
