Questions, answered
Machine Feeders and Offbearers pay in Iowa: common questions
What is the median wage for Machine Feeders and Offbearers in Iowa?
The May 2025 BLS OEWS release published a median of $45,250 per year for Machine Feeders and Offbearers in Iowa. This describes an occupation-area estimate, not a promised offer or an individual's pay.

Iowa's published median was 9.8% above the U.S. median for the same occupation and release.
Does the wage estimate adjust for cost of living in Iowa?
No. The BLS wage is nominal. WageScope separately shows BEA's 2024 all-items Regional Price Parity of 87.8 and a transparent national-price-dollar proxy.

What the Machine Feeders and Offbearers median says in Iowa
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Machine Feeders and Offbearers median in Iowa at $45,250 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 53-7063 and BLS area 19.
BLS lists 560 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 $46,110 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Iowa's Machine Feeders and Offbearers median is 9.8% above the U.S. Machine Feeders and Offbearers median of $41,220 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 53-7063 and area 19. SOC 53-7063 names Machine Feeders and Offbearers. Area 19 names Iowa. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 53-7063/19 row reports 560 wage and salary jobs, 0.36 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.32 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 53-7063/19, the annual median is $45,250 per year, while the matching mean is $46,110 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 19 facts behind this Machine Feeders and Offbearers page
Area 19 reports 1,559,240 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $59,830. Its annual median is $48,540. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.2%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 53-7063 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Iowa runs from $28,930 at the 10th percentile to $99,630 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,570. The median is $48,540. The 75th percentile is $70,290. This is a place check, not a pay range for Machine Feeders and Offbearers.
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 19. They do not show related skills or a path into Machine Feeders and Offbearers.
1. Area 19, SOC 41-2011, Cashiers: 41,450 jobs, $28,970 annual median, 26.58 jobs per 1,000, and 1.34 location quotient.
2. Area 19, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 41,000 jobs, $31,360 annual median, 26.29 jobs per 1,000, and 1.05 location quotient.
3. Area 19, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 40,290 jobs, $28,390 annual median, 25.84 jobs per 1,000, and 1.04 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Iowa wage ladder for Machine Feeders and Offbearers
The 10th percentile is $34,540 per year. The 25th percentile is $40,350 per year. The median is $45,250 per year. The 75th percentile is $47,200 per year. The 90th percentile is $56,850 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 $40,350 per year to $47,200 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $22,310. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Iowa has a annual median of $45,250 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $41,220 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Iowa. Iowa is 9.8% 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.
Where Iowa sits for Machine Feeders and Offbearers
Iowa ranks 12 of 44 among states and territories with a published annual median for Machine Feeders and Offbearers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 12 of 44 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.
9. Oregon has a Machine Feeders and Offbearers median of $45,580 per year, 2,390 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 4.46.
10. Nebraska has a Machine Feeders and Offbearers median of $45,470 per year, 210 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.76.
11. Arkansas has a Machine Feeders and Offbearers median of $45,250 per year, 1,580 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 4.44.
13. Ohio has a Machine Feeders and Offbearers median of $45,130 per year, 2,930 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.94.
Pay leaders
Where Machine Feeders and Offbearers medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 53-7063, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Wisconsin has the highest published median in this set, at $55,120 per year. Iowa sits at $45,250 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Machine Feeders and Offbearers 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. Wisconsin has a Machine Feeders and Offbearers median of $55,120 per year, or $9,870 above Iowa. BLS lists 570 jobs there, compared with 560 in Iowa. The location quotient is 0.71.
2. Wyoming has a Machine Feeders and Offbearers median of $51,280 per year, or $6,030 above Iowa. BLS lists 30 jobs there, compared with 560 in Iowa. The location quotient is 0.43.
3. Minnesota has a Machine Feeders and Offbearers median of $48,740 per year, or $3,490 above Iowa. BLS lists 410 jobs there, compared with 560 in Iowa. The location quotient is 0.51.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Machine Feeders and Offbearers jobs
California has the largest published state job estimate for Machine Feeders and Offbearers in this same-source set, at 4,830 jobs. Iowa has 560. 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. California has 4,830 estimated Machine Feeders and Offbearers jobs, a gap of 4,270 jobs from Iowa. Its median is $40,380 per year, or $4,870 below Iowa. Its location quotient is 0.97.
2. Texas has 3,100 estimated Machine Feeders and Offbearers jobs, a gap of 2,540 jobs from Iowa. Its median is $37,350 per year, or $7,900 below Iowa. Its location quotient is 0.81.
3. Ohio has 2,930 estimated Machine Feeders and Offbearers jobs, a gap of 2,370 jobs from Iowa. Its median is $45,130 per year, or $120 below Iowa. Its location quotient is 1.94.
Local-share leaders
Where Machine Feeders and Offbearers takes the largest share of local jobs
South Dakota has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 5.27. Iowa has 1.32. 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 Machine Feeders and Offbearers 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. South Dakota has a location quotient of 5.27, a gap of 3.95 from Iowa. BLS lists 660 Machine Feeders and Offbearers jobs and a median of $39,310 per year, or $5,940 below Iowa.
2. Oregon has a location quotient of 4.46, a gap of 3.14 from Iowa. BLS lists 2,390 Machine Feeders and Offbearers jobs and a median of $45,580 per year, or $330 above Iowa.
3. Arkansas has a location quotient of 4.44, a gap of 3.12 from Iowa. BLS lists 1,580 Machine Feeders and Offbearers jobs and a median of $45,250 per year, or $0 above Iowa.
Job scale and share
How common Machine Feeders and Offbearers is in Iowa
BLS lists 560 Machine Feeders and Offbearers jobs in Iowa. It also lists 0.36 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 1.32. A value of 1 means Machine Feeders and Offbearers 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.
Machine Feeders and Offbearers beside other roles in Iowa
The all-occupations median in Iowa is $48,540 per year. The Machine Feeders and Offbearers median is $45,250 per year. Machine Feeders and Offbearers is 6.8% below 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 Iowa. 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 Machine Feeders and Offbearers. 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. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive, SOC 43-6014, has a Iowa median of $45,150 per year. BLS lists 12,830 jobs and a location quotient of 0.75.
2. Customer Service Representatives, SOC 43-4051, has a Iowa median of $46,090 per year. BLS lists 30,100 jobs and a location quotient of 1.16.
3. Office Clerks, General, SOC 43-9061, has a Iowa median of $44,310 per year. BLS lists 23,120 jobs and a location quotient of 0.94.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Iowa
Cashiers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Iowa table, at 41,450 jobs. Machine Feeders and Offbearers has 560 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 1,559,240. 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 Machine Feeders and Offbearers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Cashiers has 41,450 jobs in Iowa, a gap of 40,890 from Machine Feeders and Offbearers. Its median is $28,970 per year, or $16,280 below Machine Feeders and Offbearers. Its location quotient is 1.34.
2. Retail Salespersons has 41,000 jobs in Iowa, a gap of 40,440 from Machine Feeders and Offbearers. Its median is $31,360 per year, or $13,890 below Machine Feeders and Offbearers. Its location quotient is 1.05.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Iowa
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Iowa role table, at $87,690 per year. Machine Feeders and Offbearers has $45,250 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $48,540 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. General and Operations Managers has a median of $87,690 per year in Iowa, or $42,440 above Machine Feeders and Offbearers. BLS lists 30,760 jobs, compared with 560 for Machine Feeders and Offbearers. Its location quotient is 0.88.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $78,630 per year in Iowa, or $33,380 above Machine Feeders and Offbearers. BLS lists 34,420 jobs, compared with 560 for Machine Feeders and Offbearers. Its location quotient is 1.02.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Iowa
Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary has the highest location quotient in the bounded Iowa role table, at 1.72. Machine Feeders and Offbearers has 1.32. 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 Machine Feeders and Offbearers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary has a location quotient of 1.72 in Iowa, a gap of 0.40 from Machine Feeders and Offbearers. BLS lists 24,520 jobs and a median of $30,510 per year, or $14,740 below Machine Feeders and Offbearers.
2. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers has a location quotient of 1.69 in Iowa, a gap of 0.37 from Machine Feeders and Offbearers. BLS lists 35,040 jobs and a median of $58,070 per year, or $12,820 above Machine Feeders and Offbearers.
Price-level view
What $45,250 may mean after the Iowa price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Iowa is 87.8. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 12.2% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $45,250 Machine Feeders and Offbearers median by 87.8 divided by 100. The result is $51,560 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 65.3. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 83.3. Other services are 92.9. 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 Machine Feeders and Offbearers row is 16.8%. The mean-wage RSE is 4.1%. 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 560 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $46,110 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 Machine Feeders and Offbearers. It uses a Iowa 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. Job cards can change without changing this guide. They do not count toward the 1,500-word content floor. A listing range does not replace the $45,250 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 Machine Feeders and Offbearers row for Iowa 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 560 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.32 is not a growth score. Rank 12 of 44 is not a place score. The 87.8 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 53-7063 in BLS area 19. 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 560 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.
