How much do general and operations managers make in Kansas City, MO-KS?

What the General and Operations Managers median says in Kansas City, MO-KS

The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the General and Operations Managers median in Kansas City, MO-KS at $90,490 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 11-1021 and BLS area 28140.

BLS lists 31,080 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 $114,850 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.

Kansas City, MO-KS's General and Operations Managers median is 14.4% below the U.S. General and Operations Managers median of $105,770 on the same published median. Both values use the same job code and source date. They do not account for prices, taxes, benefits, hours, or your work history.

Read source key 11-1021 with area 28140

This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 11-1021 and area 28140. SOC 11-1021 names General and Operations Managers. Area 28140 names Kansas City, MO-KS. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.

The 11-1021/28140 row has 31,080 wage and salary jobs. There are 28.35 for each 1,000 local jobs. The location quotient is 1.26. Each value stays under the same job and area codes.

For 11-1021/28140, the annual median is $90,490 per year, while the matching mean is $114,850 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

Read the Kansas City, MO-KS wage ladder for General and Operations Managers

The 10th percentile is $47,080 per year. The 25th percentile is $61,410 per year. The median is $90,490 per year. The 75th percentile is $140,870 per year. The 90th percentile is $219,230 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 $61,410 per year to $140,870 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $172,150. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.

Compare Kansas City, MO-KS with its state and the U.S.

Kansas City, MO-KS has a annual median of $90,490 per year. Missouri has $79,300 per year. The U.S. row has $105,770 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.

Kansas City, MO-KS is 14.1% above Missouri on the same published median. Kansas City, MO-KS is 14.4% 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.

Where Kansas City, MO-KS sits for General and Operations Managers

Kansas City, MO-KS ranks 276 of 392 among metro areas with a published annual median for General and Operations Managers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.

Rank 276 of 392 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.

Where General and Operations Managers medians lead among metro areas

The rows below use the same SOC 11-1021, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Trenton-Princeton, NJ has the highest published median in this set, at $181,450 per year. Kansas City, MO-KS sits at $90,490 per year.

A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common General and Operations Managers 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.

Where BLS counts the most General and Operations Managers jobs

New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for General and Operations Managers in this same-source set, at 177,850 jobs. Kansas City, MO-KS has 31,080. 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.

Where General and Operations Managers takes the largest share of local jobs

Prescott Valley-Prescott, AZ has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 1.77. Kansas City, MO-KS has 1.26. 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 General and Operations Managers 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.

How common General and Operations Managers is in Kansas City, MO-KS

BLS lists 31,080 General and Operations Managers jobs in Kansas City, MO-KS. It also lists 28.35 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 1.26. A value of 1 means General and Operations Managers 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.

General and Operations Managers beside other roles in Kansas City, MO-KS

The all-occupations median in Kansas City, MO-KS is $50,820 per year. The General and Operations Managers median is $90,490 per year. General and Operations Managers is 78.1% 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 Kansas City, MO-KS. 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 General and Operations Managers. 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.

The all-occupations job count is 1,096,110. 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 General and Operations Managers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.

The local all-occupations median is $50,820 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.

Roles with the largest local share in Kansas City, MO-KS

Cooks, Fast Food has the highest location quotient in the bounded Kansas City, MO-KS role table, at 3.07. General and Operations Managers has 1.26. 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 General and Operations Managers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.

What $90,490 may mean after the Kansas City, MO-KS price level

BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Kansas City, MO-KS is 92.5. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 7.5% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.

WageScope divides the $90,490 General and Operations Managers median by 92.5 divided by 100. The result is $97,782 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 86.6. Goods are 94.1. Utilities are 89.0. Other services are 93.4. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.

How much care to use with the Kansas City, MO-KS row

The employment RSE for this General and Operations Managers row is 1.7%. 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 31,080 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $114,850 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.

Use Kansas City, MO-KS wage data before you tailor

The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to General and Operations Managers. It uses a Kansas City, MO-KS 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 $90,490 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 General and Operations Managers row for Kansas City, MO-KS 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 31,080 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.26 is not a growth score. Rank 276 of 392 is not a place score. The 92.5 price index is not a personal budget.

Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 11-1021 in BLS area 28140. 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.
