Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area was 14.9% below the U.S. median for Machinists. It ranked 83 of 127 nonmetro 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 Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Machinists median in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area at $49,980 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 4000003.
BLS lists 110 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 $52,730 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area's Machinists median is 14.9% below 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 4000003. SOC 51-4041 names Machinists. Area 4000003 names Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 51-4041/4000003 row reports 110 wage and salary jobs, 1.75 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.95 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 51-4041/4000003, the annual median is $49,980 per year, while the matching mean is $52,730 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
51-4041/4000003 10th percentile: $37,090 per year.
51-4041/4000003 25th percentile: $45,670 per year.
51-4041/4000003 median: $49,980 per year.
51-4041/4000003 75th percentile: $59,230 per year.
51-4041/4000003 90th percentile: $70,280 per year.
BLS area 4000003 facts behind this Machinists page
Area 4000003 reports 62,090 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $50,970. Its annual median is $41,410. The employment RSE is 0%. 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 Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area runs from $22,960 at the 10th percentile to $88,710 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $29,560. The median is $41,410. The 75th percentile is $60,120. 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 4000003. They do not show related skills or a path into Machinists.
1. Area 4000003, SOC 41-2011, Cashiers: 2,420 jobs, $26,790 annual median, 38.98 jobs per 1,000, and 1.96 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area wage ladder for Machinists
The 10th percentile is $37,090 per year. The 25th percentile is $45,670 per year. The median is $49,980 per year. The 75th percentile is $59,230 per year. The 90th percentile is $70,280 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 $45,670 per year to $59,230 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $33,190. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $49,980 per year. Oklahoma has $51,120 per year. The U.S. row has $58,750 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area is 2.2% below Oklahoma on the same published median. Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area is 14.9% 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.
Where Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area sits for Machinists
Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area ranks 83 of 127 among nonmetro 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 83 of 127 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.
80. High Desert Utah nonmetropolitan area has a Machinists median of $50,180 per year, 260 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.29.
81. Northwest Iowa nonmetropolitan area has a Machinists median of $50,160 per year, 270 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.01.
82. Lower East Mississippi nonmetropolitan area has a Machinists median of $50,050 per year, 150 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.64.
84. Northeast Maine nonmetropolitan area has a Machinists median of $49,930 per year, 60 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.51.
Pay leaders
Where Machinists medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 51-4041, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Northern New Mexico nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $85,350 per year. Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area sits at $49,980 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. Northern New Mexico nonmetropolitan area has a Machinists median of $85,350 per year, or $35,370 above Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 50 jobs there, compared with 110 in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 0.34.
2. Alaska nonmetropolitan area has a Machinists median of $81,030 per year, or $31,050 above Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 60 jobs there, compared with 110 in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 0.29.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Machinists jobs
Northern Indiana nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Machinists in this same-source set, at 2,180 jobs. Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area has 110. 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. Northern Indiana nonmetropolitan area has 2,180 estimated Machinists jobs, a gap of 2,070 jobs from Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $61,370 per year, or $11,390 above Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 5.6.
2. West Northwestern Ohio nonmetropolitan area has 2,080 estimated Machinists jobs, a gap of 1,970 jobs from Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $57,940 per year, or $7,960 above Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 4.51.
Local-share leaders
Where Machinists takes the largest share of local jobs
Northern Indiana nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 5.6. Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area has 0.95. 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. Northern Indiana nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 5.6, a gap of 4.65 from Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 2,180 Machinists jobs and a median of $61,370 per year, or $11,390 above Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area.
2. West Northwestern Ohio nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 4.51, a gap of 3.56 from Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 2,080 Machinists jobs and a median of $57,940 per year, or $7,960 above Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area.
Job scale and share
How common Machinists is in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists 110 Machinists jobs in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. It also lists 1.75 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 0.95. A value of 1 means Machinists 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.
Machinists beside other roles in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area
The all-occupations median in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area is $41,410 per year. The Machinists median is $49,980 per year. Machinists is 20.7% 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 Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. 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 Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area median of $50,840 per year. BLS lists 1,160 jobs and a location quotient of 1.41.
2. Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education, SOC 25-2031, has a Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area median of $47,180 per year. BLS lists 720 jobs and a location quotient of 1.7.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area
Cashiers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area table, at 2,420 jobs. Machinists has 110 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 62,090. 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. Cashiers has 2,420 jobs in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 2,310 from Machinists. Its median is $26,790 per year, or $23,190 below Machinists. Its location quotient is 1.96.
2. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 1,890 jobs in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 1,780 from Machinists. Its median is $22,770 per year, or $27,210 below Machinists. Its location quotient is 1.23.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area role table, at $79,220 per year. Machinists has $49,980 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $41,410 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 $79,220 per year in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area, or $29,240 above Machinists. BLS lists 1,180 jobs, compared with 110 for Machinists. Its location quotient is 0.87.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $77,850 per year in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area, or $27,870 above Machinists. BLS lists 1,720 jobs, compared with 110 for Machinists. Its location quotient is 1.23.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area
Electrical Power-Line Installers and Repairers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area role table, at 10.08. Machinists has 0.95. 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. Electrical Power-Line Installers and Repairers has a location quotient of 10.08 in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 9.13 from Machinists. BLS lists 530 jobs and a median of $72,240 per year, or $22,260 above Machinists.
2. Tellers has a location quotient of 3.92 in Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 2.97 from Machinists. BLS lists 520 jobs and a median of $29,580 per year, or $20,400 below Machinists.
Price-level view
What $49,980 may mean after the Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $49,980 BLS median stays a nominal wage.
No price row means no national-price-dollar proxy. It does not mean prices match the U.S. level. It does not say whether a wage goes far or not. The source is missing for this exact map key, so the price answer stays open.
You can still compare Machinists with the U.S. or with like nonmetro areas on the same BLS metric. Keep that as a nominal wage comparison. Add price-level context only when an exact reviewed row exists.
How much care to use with the Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Machinists row is 10.9%. 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 110 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $52,730 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 Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Machinists. It uses a Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area 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 $49,980 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 Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area 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 110 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.95 is not a growth score. Rank 83 of 127 is not a place score. A missing 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 4000003. 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 110 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.
