0.4%
Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI was 8.2% above the U.S. median for English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. It ranked 32 of 150 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median says in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI at $85,180 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 25-1123 and BLS area 33340.
BLS lists 370 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 $99,550 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI's English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median is 8.2% above the U.S. English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median of $78,760 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.
Exact source record
Read source key 25-1123 with area 33340
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 25-1123 and area 33340. SOC 25-1123 names English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. Area 33340 names Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 25-1123/33340 row reports 370 wage and salary jobs, 0.45 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.22 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 25-1123/33340, the annual median is $85,180 per year, while the matching mean is $99,550 per year. The row is annual only. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

The 75th percentile is $79,440. This is a place check, not a pay range for English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary.
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 33340. They do not show related skills or a path into English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary.
1. Area 33340, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 30,090 jobs, $37,020 annual median, 36.66 jobs per 1,000, and 1.32 location quotient.

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 $78,620 per year to $110,640 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $63,180. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Same-source checks
Compare Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI with its state and the U.S.
Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI has a annual median of $85,180 per year. Wisconsin has $80,800 per year. The U.S. row has $78,760 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI is 5.4% above Wisconsin on the same published median. Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI is 8.2% 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.
Like-for-like rank
Where Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI sits for English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary
Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI ranks 32 of 150 among metro areas with a published annual median for English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 32 of 150 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.
29. Boston-Cambridge-Newton, MA-NH has a English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median of $87,020 per year, 2,110 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.1.
30. Springfield, MA has a English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median of $86,410 per year, 130 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.74.
31. Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV has a English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median of $85,830 per year, 160 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.38.
Pay leaders
Where English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 25-1123, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has the highest published median in this set, at $165,090 per year. Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI sits at $85,180 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary 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 Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median of $165,090 per year, or $79,910 above Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. BLS lists 610 jobs there, compared with 370 in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. The location quotient is 0.69.
2. Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA has a English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median of $160,050 per year, or $74,870 above Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. BLS lists 480 jobs there, compared with 370 in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. The location quotient is 0.76.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary in this same-source set, at 5,320 jobs. Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI has 370. 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 5,320 estimated English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary jobs, a gap of 4,950 jobs from Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. Its median is $96,430 per year, or $11,250 above Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. Its location quotient is 1.51.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 2,150 estimated English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary jobs, a gap of 1,780 jobs from Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. Its median is $128,810 per year, or $43,630 above Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. Its location quotient is 0.92.
Local-share leaders
Where English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary takes the largest share of local jobs
Ithaca, NY has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 9.51. Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI has 1.22. 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 English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary 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. Ithaca, NY has a location quotient of 9.51, a gap of 8.29 from Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. BLS lists 170 English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary jobs and a median of $78,440 per year, or $6,740 below Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI.
2. Amherst Town-Northampton, MA has a location quotient of 8.15, a gap of 6.93 from Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. BLS lists 200 English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary jobs and a median of $101,500 per year, or $16,320 above Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI.
Job scale and share
How common English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary is in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI
BLS lists 370 English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary jobs in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. It also lists 0.45 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 1.22. A value of 1 means English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is higher 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
English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary beside other roles in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI
The all-occupations median in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI is $51,160 per year. The English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median is $85,180 per year. English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary is 66.5% 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 Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI. 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 English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. 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. Accountants and Auditors, SOC 13-2011, has a Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI median of $80,290 per year. BLS lists 7,960 jobs and a location quotient of 1.04.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Production and Operating Workers, SOC 51-1011, has a Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI median of $75,660 per year. BLS lists 6,230 jobs and a location quotient of 1.75.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI table, at 30,090 jobs. English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary has 370 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 820,780. 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 English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 30,090 jobs in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI, a gap of 29,720 from English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. Its median is $37,020 per year, or $48,160 below English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. Its location quotient is 1.32.
2. Registered Nurses has 22,400 jobs in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI, a gap of 22,030 from English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. Its median is $97,360 per year, or $12,180 above English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. Its location quotient is 1.26.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI role table, at $125,490 per year. English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary has $85,180 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $51,160 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 $125,490 per year in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI, or $40,310 above English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. BLS lists 10,480 jobs, compared with 370 for English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. Its location quotient is 0.57.
2. Project Management Specialists has a median of $100,350 per year in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI, or $15,170 above English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. BLS lists 6,790 jobs, compared with 370 for English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. Its location quotient is 1.21.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI
Bartenders has the highest location quotient in the bounded Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI role table, at 1.84. English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary has 1.22. 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 English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Bartenders has a location quotient of 1.84 in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI, a gap of 0.62 from English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. BLS lists 7,330 jobs and a median of $25,970 per year, or $59,210 below English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Production and Operating Workers has a location quotient of 1.75 in Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI, a gap of 0.53 from English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. BLS lists 6,230 jobs and a median of $75,660 per year, or $9,520 below English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary.
Price-level view
What $85,180 may mean after the Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI is 96.9. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 3.1% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $85,180 English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary median by 96.9 divided by 100. The result is $87,872 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 97.1. Goods are 93.8. Utilities are 91.6. Other services are 99.4. 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 Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI row
The employment RSE for this English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary row is 0.7%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.4%. 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 370 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $99,550 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 Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary. It uses a Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI 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 $85,180 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 English Language and Literature Teachers, Postsecondary row for Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI 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 370 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.22 is not a growth score. Rank 32 of 150 is not a place score. The 96.9 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 25-1123 in BLS area 33340. 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 370 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.
