What the Food Servers, Nonrestaurant median says in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Food Servers, Nonrestaurant median in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area at $34,890 per year. Median means the middle of the published wage spread.

BLS lists 270 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 $37,440 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area's Food Servers, Nonrestaurant median is 1.3% below the U.S. Food Servers, Nonrestaurant median of $35,360 on the same published median.

Compare Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $34,890 per year. New York has $39,370 per year. The U.S. row has $35,360 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area is 11.4% below New York on the same published median. Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area is 1.3% 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 benchmarks, 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 Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area sits for Food Servers, Nonrestaurant
Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area ranks 30 of 131 among nonmetro areas with a published annual median for Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 30 of 131 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.
27. Central Pennsylvania nonmetropolitan area. The Food Servers, Nonrestaurant median is $35,010 per year. BLS estimates 400 jobs. The location quotient is 1.14.
28. Connecticut nonmetropolitan area. The Food Servers, Nonrestaurant median is $34,960 per year. BLS estimates 190 jobs. The location quotient is 1.49.

Pay leaders
Where Food Servers, Nonrestaurant medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 35-3041, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Southwest Colorado nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $44,040 per year. Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area sits at $34,890 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Food Servers, Nonrestaurant 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. Southwest Colorado nonmetropolitan area has a Food Servers, Nonrestaurant median of $44,040 per year, or $9,150 above Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 200 jobs there, compared with 270 in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 0.96.
2. Hawaii / Kauai nonmetropolitan area has a Food Servers, Nonrestaurant median of $39,110 per year, or $4,220 above Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 150 jobs there, compared with 270 in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 0.77.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Food Servers, Nonrestaurant jobs
Northwest Minnesota nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Food Servers, Nonrestaurant in this same-source set, at 850 jobs. Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area has 270. 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. Northwest Minnesota nonmetropolitan area has 850 estimated Food Servers, Nonrestaurant jobs, a gap of 580 jobs from Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $35,790 per year, or $900 above Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 2.32.
2. West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area has 760 estimated Food Servers, Nonrestaurant jobs, a gap of 490 jobs from Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $31,230 per year, or $3,660 below Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 2.36.
Local-share leaders
Where Food Servers, Nonrestaurant takes the largest share of local jobs
East North Dakota nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 3.28. Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area has 1.01. 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 Food Servers, Nonrestaurant 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. East North Dakota nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 3.28, a gap of 2.27 from Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 390 Food Servers, Nonrestaurant jobs and a median of $36,460 per year, or $1,570 above Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area.
2. Northwest Nebraska nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 3.23, a gap of 2.22 from Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 240 Food Servers, Nonrestaurant jobs and a median of $32,030 per year, or $2,860 below Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area.
Job scale and share
How common Food Servers, Nonrestaurant is in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists 270 Food Servers, Nonrestaurant jobs in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. It also lists 1.91 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 1.01. A value of 1 means Food Servers, Nonrestaurant 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.
Local job mix
Food Servers, Nonrestaurant beside other roles in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area
The all-occupations median in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area is $49,710 per year. The Food Servers, Nonrestaurant median is $34,890 per year.

The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. 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 Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. 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. Cashiers, SOC 41-2011, has a Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area median of $34,580 per year. BLS lists 3,850 jobs and a location quotient of 1.39.

Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area table, at 5,110 jobs. Food Servers, Nonrestaurant has 270 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 139,340. 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 Food Servers, Nonrestaurant's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 5,110 jobs in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 4,840 from Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. Its median is $38,020 per year, or $3,130 above Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. Its location quotient is 1.33.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area role table, at $95,740 per year. Food Servers, Nonrestaurant has $34,890 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $49,710 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. Registered Nurses has a median of $95,740 per year in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area, or $60,850 above Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. BLS lists 3,390 jobs, compared with 270 for Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. Its location quotient is 1.12.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $92,160 per year in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area, or $57,270 above Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. BLS lists 2,440 jobs, compared with 270 for Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. Its location quotient is 0.78.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area
Correctional Officers and Jailers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area role table, at 8.39. Food Servers, Nonrestaurant has 1.01. 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 Food Servers, Nonrestaurant with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Correctional Officers and Jailers has a location quotient of 8.39 in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 7.38 from Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. BLS lists 2,860 jobs and a median of $72,890 per year, or $38,000 above Food Servers, Nonrestaurant.

Price-level view
What $34,890 may mean after the Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $34,890 BLS median stays a nominal wage.
No price row means no national-price-dollar proxy. It does not mean prices match the U.S. level. It does not say whether a wage goes far or not. The source is missing for this exact map key, so the price answer stays open.
You can still compare Food Servers, Nonrestaurant with the U.S. or with like nonmetro areas on the same BLS metric. Keep that as a nominal wage comparison. Add price-level context only when an exact reviewed row exists.
Data care
How much care to use with the Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Food Servers, Nonrestaurant row is 5.3%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.9%. 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 270 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $37,440 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 Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Food Servers, Nonrestaurant. It uses a Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area 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 $34,890 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 Food Servers, Nonrestaurant row for Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area 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 270 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.01 is not a growth score. Rank 30 of 131 is not a place score. A missing price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 35-3041 in BLS area 3600001. 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.
How many Food Servers, Nonrestaurant jobs does BLS estimate in Capital/Northern New York nonmetropolitan area?
BLS estimates 270 wage and salary jobs for this row. This is a survey estimate. It does not count open jobs or predict future hiring.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. We show job posts in a separate list. Each has its own source and check date. Posted pay does not change the BLS pay data.
