BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Flint, MI was 93, or 7% below the national price level. Its housing index was 74.
National-price-dollar proxy

WageScope divides the published Machinists 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 51-4041 and BLS area 22420.

Flint, MI was 7.0% above the U.S. median for Machinists. It ranked 44 of 361 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 Machinists median in Flint, MI at $62,850 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 51-4041 and BLS area 22420.
BLS lists 350 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 $63,960 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Flint, MI's Machinists median is 7.0% above the U.S. Machinists median of $58,750 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 51-4041 and area 22420. SOC 51-4041 names Machinists. Area 22420 names Flint, MI. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 51-4041/22420 row reports 350 wage and salary jobs, 2.6 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.41 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 51-4041/22420, the annual median is $62,850 per year, while the matching mean is $63,960 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 22420 reports 135,040 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $57,810. Its annual median is $45,880. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.6%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 51-4041 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Flint, MI runs from $29,010 at the 10th percentile to $97,250 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $35,100. The median is $45,880. The 75th percentile is $72,780. This is a place check, not a pay range for Machinists.
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 22420. They do not show related skills or a path into Machinists.
1. Area 22420, SOC 51-2090, Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators: 6,260 jobs, Not published annual median, 46.34 jobs per 1,000, and 5.13 location quotient.
2. Area 22420, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 4,800 jobs, $28,330 annual median, 35.53 jobs per 1,000, and 1.43 location quotient.
3. Area 22420, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 4,090 jobs, $34,740 annual median, 30.28 jobs per 1,000, and 1.09 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Flint, MI wage ladder for Machinists
The 10th percentile is $39,490 per year. The 25th percentile is $48,010 per year. The median is $62,850 per year. The 75th percentile is $80,120 per year. The 90th percentile is $80,120 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 $48,010 per year to $80,120 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $40,630. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Flint, MI has a annual median of $62,850 per year. Michigan has $52,360 per year. The U.S. row has $58,750 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Flint, MI is 20.0% above Michigan on the same published median. Flint, MI is 7.0% 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.
Flint, MI ranks 44 of 361 among metro areas with a published annual median for Machinists. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 44 of 361 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.
41. La Crosse-Onalaska, WI-MN has a Machinists median of $62,960 per year, 170 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.07.
42. Virginia Beach-Chesapeake-Norfolk, VA-NC has a Machinists median of $62,900 per year, 2,350 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.67.
43. Bend, OR has a Machinists median of $62,890 per year, 90 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.45.
45. Lexington Park, MD has a Machinists median of $62,820 per year, 50 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.37.
Pay leaders
Where Machinists medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 51-4041, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Urban Honolulu, HI has the highest published median in this set, at $84,410 per year. Flint, MI sits at $62,850 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Machinists 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. Urban Honolulu, HI has a Machinists median of $84,410 per year, or $21,560 above Flint, MI. BLS lists 250 jobs there, compared with 350 in Flint, MI. The location quotient is 0.3.
2. Florence-Muscle Shoals, AL has a Machinists median of $82,690 per year, or $19,840 above Flint, MI. BLS lists 160 jobs there, compared with 350 in Flint, MI. The location quotient is 1.59.
3. Bremerton-Silverdale-Port Orchard, WA has a Machinists median of $80,620 per year, or $17,770 above Flint, MI. BLS lists 370 jobs there, compared with 350 in Flint, MI. The location quotient is 2.11.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Machinists jobs
Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN has the largest published metro job estimate for Machinists in this same-source set, at 11,270 jobs. Flint, MI has 350. 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. Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN has 11,270 estimated Machinists jobs, a gap of 10,920 jobs from Flint, MI. Its median is $59,520 per year, or $3,330 below Flint, MI. Its location quotient is 1.35.
2. Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI has 9,420 estimated Machinists jobs, a gap of 9,070 jobs from Flint, MI. Its median is $62,070 per year, or $780 below Flint, MI. Its location quotient is 2.61.
Local-share leaders
Where Machinists takes the largest share of local jobs
Columbus, IN has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 15.95. Flint, MI has 1.41. 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 Machinists 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. Columbus, IN has a location quotient of 15.95, a gap of 14.54 from Flint, MI. BLS lists 1,470 Machinists jobs and a median of $61,230 per year, or $1,620 below Flint, MI.
2. Rockford, IL has a location quotient of 7.1, a gap of 5.69 from Flint, MI. BLS lists 1,800 Machinists jobs and a median of $49,700 per year, or $13,150 below Flint, MI.
3. Fond du Lac, WI has a location quotient of 6.77, a gap of 5.36 from Flint, MI. BLS lists 550 Machinists jobs and a median of $57,700 per year, or $5,150 below Flint, MI.
Job scale and share
How common Machinists is in Flint, MI
BLS lists 350 Machinists jobs in Flint, MI. It also lists 2.6 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 1.41. A value of 1 means Machinists 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 Flint, MI is $45,880 per year. The Machinists median is $62,850 per year. Machinists is 37.0% 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 Flint, MI. 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 Machinists. 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. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education, SOC 25-2021, has a Flint, MI median of $65,620 per year. BLS lists 1,340 jobs and a location quotient of 1.11.
2. Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education, SOC 25-2031, has a Flint, MI median of $65,920 per year. BLS lists 1,070 jobs and a location quotient of 1.15.
3. Construction Laborers, SOC 47-2061, has a Flint, MI median of $57,170 per year. BLS lists 980 jobs and a location quotient of 1.02.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Flint, MI
Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Flint, MI table, at 6,260 jobs. Machinists has 350 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 135,040. 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 Machinists's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has 6,260 jobs in Flint, MI, a gap of 5,910 from Machinists. Its median is Not published, or not available. Its location quotient is 5.13.
2. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 4,800 jobs in Flint, MI, a gap of 4,450 from Machinists. Its median is $28,330 per year, or $34,520 below Machinists. Its location quotient is 1.43.
3. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 4,090 jobs in Flint, MI, a gap of 3,740 from Machinists. Its median is $34,740 per year, or $28,110 below Machinists. Its location quotient is 1.09.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Flint, MI
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Flint, MI role table, at $97,780 per year. Machinists has $62,850 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $45,880 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. Registered Nurses has a median of $97,780 per year in Flint, MI, or $34,930 above Machinists. BLS lists 3,910 jobs, compared with 350 for Machinists. Its location quotient is 1.33.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $83,020 per year in Flint, MI, or $20,170 above Machinists. BLS lists 2,360 jobs, compared with 350 for Machinists. Its location quotient is 0.77.
3. Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators has a median of $78,530 per year in Flint, MI, or $15,680 above Machinists. BLS lists 1,020 jobs, compared with 350 for Machinists. Its location quotient is 1.52.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Flint, MI
Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Flint, MI role table, at 5.13. Machinists has 1.41. 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 Machinists with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has a location quotient of 5.13 in Flint, MI, a gap of 3.72 from Machinists. BLS lists 6,260 jobs and a median of Not published, or not available.
2. Security Guards has a location quotient of 1.85 in Flint, MI, a gap of 0.44 from Machinists. BLS lists 2,060 jobs and a median of $34,930 per year, or $27,920 below Machinists.
3. Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators has a location quotient of 1.52 in Flint, MI, a gap of 0.11 from Machinists. BLS lists 1,020 jobs and a median of $78,530 per year, or $15,680 above Machinists.
Price-level view
What $62,850 may mean after the Flint, MI price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Flint, MI is 93.0. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 7.0% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $62,850 Machinists median by 93.0 divided by 100. The result is $67,556 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 74.0. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 97.1. Other services are 99.6. 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 Machinists row is 4.5%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.4%. 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 350 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $63,960 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 Machinists. It uses a Flint, MI 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 $62,850 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 Machinists row for Flint, MI 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 350 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.41 is not a growth score. Rank 44 of 361 is not a place score. The 93.0 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 51-4041 in BLS area 22420. 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.
