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 31020.

Longview-Kelso, WA was 7.6% above the U.S. median for Machinists. It ranked 38 of 361 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Machinists median says in Longview-Kelso, WA
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Machinists median in Longview-Kelso, WA at $63,190 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 31020.
BLS lists 140 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 $66,210 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Longview-Kelso, WA's Machinists median is 7.6% 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 31020. SOC 51-4041 names Machinists. Area 31020 names Longview-Kelso, WA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 51-4041/31020 row reports 140 wage and salary jobs, 3.4 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.84 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 51-4041/31020, the annual median is $63,190 per year, while the matching mean is $66,210 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 31020 reports 41,070 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $68,090. Its annual median is $57,420. The employment RSE is 0.1%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 51-4041 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Longview-Kelso, WA runs from $37,000 at the 10th percentile to $113,890 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $44,970. The median is $57,420. The 75th percentile is $79,000. 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 31020. They do not show related skills or a path into Machinists.
1. Area 31020, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 1,780 jobs, $47,840 annual median, 43.4 jobs per 1,000, and 1.57 location quotient.
2. Area 31020, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 1,440 jobs, $36,020 annual median, 35.04 jobs per 1,000, and 1.41 location quotient.
3. Area 31020, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 1,120 jobs, $38,680 annual median, 27.24 jobs per 1,000, and 1.09 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Longview-Kelso, WA wage ladder for Machinists
The 10th percentile is $46,580 per year. The 25th percentile is $56,750 per year. The median is $63,190 per year. The 75th percentile is $74,460 per year. The 90th percentile is $85,410 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 $56,750 per year to $74,460 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $38,830. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Longview-Kelso, WA with its state and the U.S.
Longview-Kelso, WA has a annual median of $63,190 per year. Washington has $66,160 per year. The U.S. row has $58,750 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Longview-Kelso, WA is 4.5% below Washington on the same published median. Longview-Kelso, WA is 7.6% 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.
Longview-Kelso, WA ranks 38 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 38 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.
35. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Machinists median of $63,540 per year, 1,370 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.66.
36. Monroe, LA has a Machinists median of $63,350 per year, 130 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.78.
37. Gulfport-Biloxi, MS has a Machinists median of $63,330 per year, 420 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.45.
39. Bridgeport-Stamford-Danbury, CT has a Machinists median of $63,100 per year, 500 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.67.
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. Longview-Kelso, WA sits at $63,190 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 $21,220 above Longview-Kelso, WA. BLS lists 250 jobs there, compared with 140 in Longview-Kelso, WA. The location quotient is 0.3.
2. Florence-Muscle Shoals, AL has a Machinists median of $82,690 per year, or $19,500 above Longview-Kelso, WA. BLS lists 160 jobs there, compared with 140 in Longview-Kelso, WA. The location quotient is 1.59.
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. Longview-Kelso, WA has 140. 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 11,130 jobs from Longview-Kelso, WA. Its median is $59,520 per year, or $3,670 below Longview-Kelso, WA. Its location quotient is 1.35.
2. Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI has 9,420 estimated Machinists jobs, a gap of 9,280 jobs from Longview-Kelso, WA. Its median is $62,070 per year, or $1,120 below Longview-Kelso, WA. 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. Longview-Kelso, WA has 1.84. 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 14.11 from Longview-Kelso, WA. BLS lists 1,470 Machinists jobs and a median of $61,230 per year, or $1,960 below Longview-Kelso, WA.
2. Rockford, IL has a location quotient of 7.1, a gap of 5.26 from Longview-Kelso, WA. BLS lists 1,800 Machinists jobs and a median of $49,700 per year, or $13,490 below Longview-Kelso, WA.
3. Fond du Lac, WI has a location quotient of 6.77, a gap of 4.93 from Longview-Kelso, WA. BLS lists 550 Machinists jobs and a median of $57,700 per year, or $5,490 below Longview-Kelso, WA.
Job scale and share
How common Machinists is in Longview-Kelso, WA
BLS lists 140 Machinists jobs in Longview-Kelso, WA. It also lists 3.4 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 1.84. 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.
Machinists beside other roles in Longview-Kelso, WA
The all-occupations median in Longview-Kelso, WA is $57,420 per year. The Machinists median is $63,190 per year. Machinists is 10.0% 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 Longview-Kelso, WA. 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. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers, SOC 53-3032, has a Longview-Kelso, WA median of $62,930 per year. BLS lists 770 jobs and a location quotient of 1.42.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Retail Sales Workers, SOC 41-1011, has a Longview-Kelso, WA median of $59,980 per year. BLS lists 380 jobs and a location quotient of 1.28.
3. Paper Goods Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders, SOC 51-9196, has a Longview-Kelso, WA median of $59,770 per year. BLS lists 590 jobs and a location quotient of 23.41.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Longview-Kelso, WA
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Longview-Kelso, WA table, at 1,780 jobs. Machinists has 140 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 41,070. 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. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 1,780 jobs in Longview-Kelso, WA, a gap of 1,640 from Machinists. Its median is $47,840 per year, or $15,350 below Machinists. Its location quotient is 1.57.
2. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 1,440 jobs in Longview-Kelso, WA, a gap of 1,300 from Machinists. Its median is $36,020 per year, or $27,170 below Machinists. Its location quotient is 1.41.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Longview-Kelso, WA
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Longview-Kelso, WA role table, at $125,600 per year. Machinists has $63,190 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $57,420 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 $125,600 per year in Longview-Kelso, WA, or $62,410 above Machinists. BLS lists 600 jobs, compared with 140 for Machinists. Its location quotient is 0.65.
2. Industrial Machinery Mechanics has a median of $96,950 per year in Longview-Kelso, WA, or $33,760 above Machinists. BLS lists 560 jobs, compared with 140 for Machinists. Its location quotient is 4.79.
3. First-Line Supervisors of Production and Operating Workers has a median of $82,060 per year in Longview-Kelso, WA, or $18,870 above Machinists. BLS lists 440 jobs, compared with 140 for Machinists. Its location quotient is 2.47.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Longview-Kelso, WA
Paper Goods Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders has the highest location quotient in the bounded Longview-Kelso, WA role table, at 23.41. Machinists has 1.84. 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. Paper Goods Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders has a location quotient of 23.41 in Longview-Kelso, WA, a gap of 21.57 from Machinists. BLS lists 590 jobs and a median of $59,770 per year, or $3,420 below Machinists.
2. Packaging and Filling Machine Operators and Tenders has a location quotient of 5.35 in Longview-Kelso, WA, a gap of 3.51 from Machinists. BLS lists 540 jobs and a median of $47,980 per year, or $15,210 below Machinists.
Price-level view
What $63,190 may mean after the Longview-Kelso, WA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Longview-Kelso, WA is 97.5. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 2.5% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $63,190 Machinists median by 97.5 divided by 100. The result is $64,780 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 82.5. Goods are 105.0. Utilities are 98.5. Other services are 99.5. 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 Longview-Kelso, WA row
The employment RSE for this Machinists row is 9.8%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.6%. 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 140 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $66,210 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 Longview-Kelso, WA wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Machinists. It uses a Longview-Kelso, WA 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 $63,190 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 Longview-Kelso, WA 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 140 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.84 is not a growth score. Rank 38 of 361 is not a place score. The 97.5 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 31020. 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 140 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.
