What the Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median says in Indiana
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median in Indiana at $88,880 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 17-3029 and BLS area 18.
BLS lists 480 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 $91,820 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Indiana's Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median is 13.4% above the U.S. Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median of $78,350 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 17-3029 and area 18. SOC 17-3029 names Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. Area 18 names Indiana. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 17-3029/18 row reports 480 wage and salary jobs, 0.15 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.39 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 17-3029/18, the annual median is $88,880 per year, while the matching mean is $91,820 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 18 facts behind this Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other page
Area 18 reports 3,201,220 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $60,840. Its annual median is $47,860. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.2%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 17-3029 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Indiana runs from $29,120 at the 10th percentile to $101,160 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,500. The median is $47,860. The 75th percentile is $72,000. This is a place check, not a pay range for Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other.
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 18. They do not show related skills or a path into Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other.
1. Area 18, SOC 53-7062, Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand: 103,200 jobs, $41,340 annual median, 32.24 jobs per 1,000, and 1.7 location quotient.
2. Area 18, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 97,290 jobs, $28,790 annual median, 30.39 jobs per 1,000, and 1.23 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Indiana wage ladder for Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other
The 10th percentile is $65,330 per year. The 25th percentile is $76,060 per year. The median is $88,880 per year. The 75th percentile is $107,720 per year. The 90th percentile is $124,730 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 $76,060 per year to $107,720 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $59,400. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Indiana has a annual median of $88,880 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $78,350 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Indiana. Indiana is 13.4% 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.
Where Indiana sits for Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other
Indiana ranks 10 of 51 among states and territories with a published annual median for Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 10 of 51 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.
7. Nevada has a Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median of $93,670 per year, 590 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.98.
8. Hawaii has a Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median of $90,040 per year, 410 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.68.
9. Alaska has a Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median of $89,810 per year, 380 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 3.07.
Pay leaders
Where Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 17-3029, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Maine has the highest published median in this set, at $107,060 per year. Indiana sits at $88,880 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other 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. Maine has a Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median of $107,060 per year, or $18,180 above Indiana. BLS lists 810 jobs there, compared with 480 in Indiana. The location quotient is 3.29.
2. New Mexico has a Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median of $101,750 per year, or $12,870 above Indiana. BLS lists 1,390 jobs there, compared with 480 in Indiana. The location quotient is 4.13.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other jobs
California has the largest published state job estimate for Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other in this same-source set, at 7,330 jobs. Indiana has 480. 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. California has 7,330 estimated Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other jobs, a gap of 6,850 jobs from Indiana. Its median is $80,480 per year, or $8,400 below Indiana. Its location quotient is 1.04.
2. Texas has 7,110 estimated Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other jobs, a gap of 6,630 jobs from Indiana. Its median is $73,860 per year, or $15,020 below Indiana. Its location quotient is 1.31.
Local-share leaders
Where Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other takes the largest share of local jobs
New Mexico has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 4.13. Indiana has 0.39. 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 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other 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 Mexico has a location quotient of 4.13, a gap of 3.74 from Indiana. BLS lists 1,390 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other jobs and a median of $101,750 per year, or $12,870 above Indiana.
2. Guam (territory) has a location quotient of 3.7, a gap of 3.31 from Indiana. BLS lists 100 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other jobs and a median of $81,330 per year, or $7,550 below Indiana.
Job scale and share
How common Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other is in Indiana
BLS lists 480 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other jobs in Indiana. It also lists 0.15 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 0.39. A value of 1 means Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other 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.
Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other beside other roles in Indiana
The all-occupations median in Indiana is $47,860 per year. The Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median is $88,880 per year. Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other is 85.7% 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 Indiana. 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 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. 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. Registered Nurses, SOC 29-1141, has a Indiana median of $83,500 per year. BLS lists 68,980 jobs and a location quotient of 0.99.
2. Accountants and Auditors, SOC 13-2011, has a Indiana median of $77,720 per year. BLS lists 25,660 jobs and a location quotient of 0.86.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Indiana
Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Indiana table, at 103,200 jobs. Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other has 480 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 3,201,220. 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 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand has 103,200 jobs in Indiana, a gap of 102,720 from Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. Its median is $41,340 per year, or $47,540 below Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. Its location quotient is 1.7.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Indiana
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Indiana role table, at $108,170 per year. Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other has $88,880 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,860 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 $108,170 per year in Indiana, or $19,290 above Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. BLS lists 47,180 jobs, compared with 480 for Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. Its location quotient is 0.65.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $83,500 per year in Indiana, or $5,380 below Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. BLS lists 68,980 jobs, compared with 480 for Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. Its location quotient is 0.99.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Indiana
Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Indiana role table, at 2.96. Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other has 0.39. 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 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has a location quotient of 2.96 in Indiana, a gap of 2.57 from Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. BLS lists 85,610 jobs and a median of $45,550 per year, or $43,330 below Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other.
2. Inspectors, Testers, Sorters, Samplers, and Weighers has a location quotient of 2.02 in Indiana, a gap of 1.63 from Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. BLS lists 24,790 jobs and a median of $47,900 per year, or $40,980 below Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other.
Price-level view
What $88,880 may mean after the Indiana price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Indiana is 93.3. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 6.7% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $88,880 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other median by 93.3 divided by 100. The result is $95,233 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 73.9. Goods are 95.5. Utilities are 85.5. Other services are 99.1. 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 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other row is 5.4%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.1%. 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 480 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $91,820 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 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other. It uses a Indiana 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 $88,880 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 Engineering Technologists and Technicians, Except Drafters, All Other row for Indiana 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 480 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.39 is not a growth score. Rank 10 of 51 is not a place score. The 93.3 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 17-3029 in BLS area 18. 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 480 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.
