WageScope divides the published Hydrologists median by the BEA all-items index. This is a price-level comparison, not take-home pay, a personal budget, or a quality-of-life score.
Use the local pay range, same-source bench marks, job scale, price level, and survey care marks as separate facts. This guide stays tied to SOC 19-2043 and BLS area 46060.

Tucson, AZ was 15.5% below the U.S. median for Hydrologists. It ranked 26 of 33 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Hydrologists median in Tucson, AZ at $81,640 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 19-2043 and BLS area 46060.
BLS lists 80 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 $89,560 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Tucson, AZ's Hydrologists median is 15.5% below the U.S. Hydrologists median of $96,600 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 19-2043 and area 46060. SOC 19-2043 names Hydrologists. Area 46060 names Tucson, AZ. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 19-2043/46060 row reports 80 wage and salary jobs, 0.21 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 5.54 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 19-2043/46060, the annual median is $81,640 per year, while the matching mean is $89,560 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 46060 facts behind this Hydrologists page
Area 46060 reports 389,630 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $63,200. Its annual median is $47,760. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 19-2043 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Tucson, AZ runs from $32,070 at the 10th percentile to $107,430 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,610. The median is $47,760. The 75th percentile is $74,110. This is a place check, not a pay range for Hydrologists.
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 46060. They do not show related skills or a path into Hydrologists.
1. Area 46060, SOC 11-1021, General and Operations Managers: 12,130 jobs, $83,610 annual median, 31.13 jobs per 1,000, and 1.38 location quotient.
2. Area 46060, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 11,100 jobs, $34,530 annual median, 28.48 jobs per 1,000, and 1.14 location quotient.
3. Area 46060, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 11,030 jobs, $34,420 annual median, 28.3 jobs per 1,000, and 1.02 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Tucson, AZ wage ladder for Hydrologists
The 10th percentile is $64,700 per year. The 25th percentile is $66,410 per year. The median is $81,640 per year. The 75th percentile is $96,900 per year. The 90th percentile is $114,520 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 $66,410 per year to $96,900 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $49,820. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Tucson, AZ has a annual median of $81,640 per year. Arizona has $86,700 per year. The U.S. row has $96,600 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Tucson, AZ is 5.8% below Arizona on the same published median. Tucson, AZ is 15.5% 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 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.
Tucson, AZ ranks 26 of 33 among metro areas with a published annual median for Hydrologists. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 26 of 33 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.
23. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has a Hydrologists median of $88,100 per year, 130 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.36.
24. Helena, MT has a Hydrologists median of $86,260 per year, 50 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 29.09.
25. Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington, PA-NJ-DE-MD has a Hydrologists median of $85,540 per year, 70 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.62.
27. Madison, WI has a Hydrologists median of $81,310 per year, 60 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 4.22.
Pay leaders
Where Hydrologists medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 19-2043, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has the highest published median in this set, at $152,730 per year. Tucson, AZ sits at $81,640 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Hydrologists 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. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has a Hydrologists median of $152,730 per year, or $71,090 above Tucson, AZ. BLS lists 50 jobs there, compared with 80 in Tucson, AZ. The location quotient is 0.41.
2. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a Hydrologists median of $147,080 per year, or $65,440 above Tucson, AZ. BLS lists 50 jobs there, compared with 80 in Tucson, AZ. The location quotient is 0.61.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Hydrologists jobs
Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ has the largest published metro job estimate for Hydrologists in this same-source set, at 260 jobs. Tucson, AZ has 80. 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. Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ has 260 estimated Hydrologists jobs, a gap of 180 jobs from Tucson, AZ. Its median is $90,000 per year, or $8,360 above Tucson, AZ. Its location quotient is 2.92.
2. Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI has 210 estimated Hydrologists jobs, a gap of 130 jobs from Tucson, AZ. Its median is $94,580 per year, or $12,940 above Tucson, AZ. Its location quotient is 2.9.
Local-share leaders
Where Hydrologists takes the largest share of local jobs
Helena, MT has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 29.09. Tucson, AZ has 5.54. 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 Hydrologists 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. Helena, MT has a location quotient of 29.09, a gap of 23.55 from Tucson, AZ. BLS lists 50 Hydrologists jobs and a median of $86,260 per year, or $4,620 above Tucson, AZ.
2. Olympia-Lacey-Tumwater, WA has a location quotient of 15.71, a gap of 10.17 from Tucson, AZ. BLS lists 80 Hydrologists jobs and a median of $93,340 per year, or $11,700 above Tucson, AZ.
3. Bend, OR has a location quotient of 7.62, a gap of 2.08 from Tucson, AZ. BLS lists 30 Hydrologists jobs and a median of $91,170 per year, or $9,530 above Tucson, AZ.
Job scale and share
How common Hydrologists is in Tucson, AZ
BLS lists 80 Hydrologists jobs in Tucson, AZ. It also lists 0.21 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 5.54. A value of 1 means Hydrologists 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.
The all-occupations median in Tucson, AZ is $47,760 per year. The Hydrologists median is $81,640 per year. Hydrologists is 70.9% 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 Tucson, AZ. 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 Hydrologists. 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. General and Operations Managers, SOC 11-1021, has a Tucson, AZ median of $83,610 per year. BLS lists 12,130 jobs and a location quotient of 1.38.
2. Registered Nurses, SOC 29-1141, has a Tucson, AZ median of $94,110 per year. BLS lists 10,120 jobs and a location quotient of 1.19.
3. First-Line Supervisors of Office and Administrative Support Workers, SOC 43-1011, has a Tucson, AZ median of $59,440 per year. BLS lists 3,500 jobs and a location quotient of 0.97.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Tucson, AZ
General and Operations Managers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Tucson, AZ table, at 12,130 jobs. Hydrologists has 80 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 389,630. 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 Hydrologists's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. General and Operations Managers has 12,130 jobs in Tucson, AZ, a gap of 12,050 from Hydrologists. Its median is $83,610 per year, or $1,970 above Hydrologists. Its location quotient is 1.38.
2. Retail Salespersons has 11,100 jobs in Tucson, AZ, a gap of 11,020 from Hydrologists. Its median is $34,530 per year, or $47,110 below Hydrologists. Its location quotient is 1.14.
3. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 11,030 jobs in Tucson, AZ, a gap of 10,950 from Hydrologists. Its median is $34,420 per year, or $47,220 below Hydrologists. Its location quotient is 1.02.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Tucson, AZ
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Tucson, AZ role table, at $123,710 per year. Hydrologists has $81,640 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,760 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. Software Developers has a median of $123,710 per year in Tucson, AZ, or $42,070 above Hydrologists. BLS lists 4,060 jobs, compared with 80 for Hydrologists. Its location quotient is 0.96.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $94,110 per year in Tucson, AZ, or $12,470 above Hydrologists. BLS lists 10,120 jobs, compared with 80 for Hydrologists. Its location quotient is 1.19.
3. General and Operations Managers has a median of $83,610 per year in Tucson, AZ, or $1,970 above Hydrologists. BLS lists 12,130 jobs, compared with 80 for Hydrologists. Its location quotient is 1.38.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Tucson, AZ
Medical Assistants has the highest location quotient in the bounded Tucson, AZ role table, at 1.46. Hydrologists has 5.54. 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 Hydrologists with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Medical Assistants has a location quotient of 1.46 in Tucson, AZ, a gap of 4.08 from Hydrologists. BLS lists 2,990 jobs and a median of $44,380 per year, or $37,260 below Hydrologists.
2. General and Operations Managers has a location quotient of 1.38 in Tucson, AZ, a gap of 4.16 from Hydrologists. BLS lists 12,130 jobs and a median of $83,610 per year, or $1,970 above Hydrologists.
3. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General has a location quotient of 1.36 in Tucson, AZ, a gap of 4.18 from Hydrologists. BLS lists 5,210 jobs and a median of $45,600 per year, or $36,040 below Hydrologists.
Price-level view
What $81,640 may mean after the Tucson, AZ price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Tucson, AZ 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 $81,640 Hydrologists median by 96.9 divided by 100. The result is $84,255 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 91.8. Goods are 96.2. Utilities are 89.5. Other services are 99.8. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Hydrologists row is 20%. The mean-wage RSE is 3.5%. 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 80 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $89,560 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 Hydrologists. It uses a Tucson, AZ 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 $81,640 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 Hydrologists row for Tucson, AZ 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 80 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 5.54 is not a growth score. Rank 26 of 33 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 19-2043 in BLS area 46060. 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.
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.
