New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ was 9.1% above the U.S. median for Genetic Counselors. It ranked 4 of 19 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Genetic Counselors median says in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Genetic Counselors median in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ at $109,130 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 29-9092 and BLS area 35620.
BLS lists 390 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 $115,310 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ's Genetic Counselors median is 9.1% above the U.S. Genetic Counselors median of $100,040 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 29-9092 with area 35620
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 29-9092 and area 35620. SOC 29-9092 names Genetic Counselors. Area 35620 names New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 29-9092/35620 row reports 390 wage and salary jobs, 0.04 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.72 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 29-9092/35620, the annual median is $109,130 per year, while the matching mean is $115,310 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
29-9092/35620 has no suppression mark in the fields shown on this page.

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 35620. They do not show related skills or a path into Genetic Counselors.
1. Area 35620, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 644,700 jobs, $39,680 annual median, 67.92 jobs per 1,000, and 2.45 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 $100,870 per year to $133,450 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $86,820. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Same-source checks
Compare New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ with its state and the U.S.
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has a annual median of $109,130 per year. New York has $107,450 per year. The U.S. row has $100,040 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is 1.6% above New York on the same published median. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is 9.1% 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 New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ sits for Genetic Counselors
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ ranks 4 of 19 among metro areas with a published annual median for Genetic Counselors. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 4 of 19 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.
1. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a Genetic Counselors median of $177,990 per year, 120 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.07.
2. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Genetic Counselors median of $165,920 per year, 80 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.91.
3. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has a Genetic Counselors median of $120,560 per year, 130 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.86.

Pay leaders
Where Genetic Counselors medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 29-9092, 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 $177,990 per year. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ sits at $109,130 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Genetic Counselors 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 Genetic Counselors median of $177,990 per year, or $68,860 above New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. BLS lists 120 jobs there, compared with 390 in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. The location quotient is 2.07.
2. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Genetic Counselors median of $165,920 per year, or $56,790 above New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. BLS lists 80 jobs there, compared with 390 in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. The location quotient is 2.91.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Genetic Counselors jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Genetic Counselors in this same-source set, at 390 jobs. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 390. 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 390 estimated Genetic Counselors jobs, a gap of 0 jobs from New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. Its median is $109,130 per year, or $0 above New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. Its location quotient is 1.72.
2. Boston-Cambridge-Newton, MA-NH has 180 estimated Genetic Counselors jobs, a gap of 210 jobs from New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. Its median is $97,240 per year, or $11,890 below New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. Its location quotient is 2.76.
Local-share leaders
Where Genetic Counselors takes the largest share of local jobs
Madison, WI has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 4.06. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 1.72. 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 Genetic Counselors 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. Madison, WI has a location quotient of 4.06, a gap of 2.34 from New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. BLS lists 40 Genetic Counselors jobs and a median of $89,600 per year, or $19,530 below New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ.
2. Pittsburgh, PA has a location quotient of 3.65, a gap of 1.93 from New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. BLS lists 100 Genetic Counselors jobs and a median of $99,030 per year, or $10,100 below New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ.

Job scale and share
How common Genetic Counselors is in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ
BLS lists 390 Genetic Counselors jobs in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. It also lists 0.04 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 1.72. A value of 1 means Genetic Counselors 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
Genetic Counselors beside other roles in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ
The all-occupations median in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is $61,430 per year. The Genetic Counselors median is $109,130 per year. Genetic Counselors is 77.6% 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 New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ. 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 Genetic Counselors. 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 New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ median of $105,650 per year. BLS lists 111,930 jobs and a location quotient of 1.27.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ table, at 644,700 jobs. Genetic Counselors has 390 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 9,492,000. 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 Genetic Counselors's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 644,700 jobs in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ, a gap of 644,310 from Genetic Counselors. Its median is $39,680 per year, or $69,450 below Genetic Counselors. Its location quotient is 2.45.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ
Financial Managers has the highest published median in the bounded New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ role table, at $221,010 per year. Genetic Counselors has $109,130 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $61,430 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 $221,010 per year in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ, or $111,880 above Genetic Counselors. BLS lists 89,960 jobs, compared with 390 for Genetic Counselors. Its location quotient is 1.75.

Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ
Executive Secretaries and Executive Administrative Assistants has the highest location quotient in the bounded New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ role table, at 2.74. Genetic Counselors has 1.72. 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 Genetic Counselors with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Executive Secretaries and Executive Administrative Assistants has a location quotient of 2.74 in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ, a gap of 1.02 from Genetic Counselors. BLS lists 76,950 jobs and a median of $83,840 per year, or $25,290 below Genetic Counselors.
2. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has a location quotient of 2.45 in New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ, a gap of 0.73 from Genetic Counselors. BLS lists 644,700 jobs and a median of $39,680 per year, or $69,450 below Genetic Counselors.
Price-level view
What $109,130 may mean after the New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ is 112.6. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 12.6% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $109,130 Genetic Counselors median by 112.6 divided by 100. The result is $96,950 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 148.6. Goods are 110.3. Utilities are 127.0. Other services are 105.8. 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 New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ row
The employment RSE for this Genetic Counselors row is 20.2%. The mean-wage RSE is 5.1%. 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 390 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $115,310 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 New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Genetic Counselors. It uses a New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ 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 $109,130 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 Genetic Counselors row for New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ 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 390 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.72 is not a growth score. Rank 4 of 19 is not a place score. The 112.6 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 29-9092 in BLS area 35620. 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 390 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.
