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 $35,780 per year to $45,840 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $17,820. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.

Compare Eugene-Springfield, OR with its state and the U.S.

Eugene-Springfield, OR has a annual median of $38,920 per year. Oregon has $44,750 per year. The U.S. row has $40,240 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.

Eugene-Springfield, OR is 13.0% below Oregon on the same published median. Eugene-Springfield, OR is 3.3% 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.

Where Eugene-Springfield, OR sits for Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand

Eugene-Springfield, OR ranks 193 of 392 among metro areas with a published annual median for Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.

Rank 193 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 Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand medians lead among metro areas

The rows below use the same SOC 53-7062, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Topeka, KS has the highest published median in this set, at $49,140 per year. Eugene-Springfield, OR sits at $38,920 per year.

A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand 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 Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand jobs

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.

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 Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand 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 Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand is in Eugene-Springfield, OR

BLS lists 1,550 Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand jobs in Eugene-Springfield, OR. It also lists 9.82 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 0.52. A value of 1 means Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is lower 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.

Use the list to spot the local wage mix around Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand. 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 157,710. 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 Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.

Roles with the largest local share in Eugene-Springfield, OR

Personal Care and Service Workers, All Other has the highest location quotient in the bounded Eugene-Springfield, OR role table, at 38.37. Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand has 0.52. 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 Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.

What $38,920 may mean after the Eugene-Springfield, OR price level

BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Eugene-Springfield, OR is 101.6. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 1.6% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.

WageScope divides the $38,920 Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand median by 101.6 divided by 100. The result is $38,319 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 98.3. Goods are 105.3. Utilities are 102.5. Other services are 100.3. 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 Eugene-Springfield, OR row

The employment RSE for this Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand row is 4.4%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.8%. 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 1,550 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $40,990 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 Eugene-Springfield, OR wage data before you tailor

The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand. It uses a Eugene-Springfield, OR 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 $38,920 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 Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand row for Eugene-Springfield, OR 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 1,550 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.52 is not a growth score. Rank 193 of 392 is not a place score. The 101.6 price index is not a personal budget.

Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 53-7062 in BLS area 21660. 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.
