Ames, IA was 10.4% above the U.S. median for Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. It ranked 65 of 393 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median says in Ames, IA
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median in Ames, IA at $54,770 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 49-9071 and BLS area 11180.
BLS lists 670 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 $55,020 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Ames, IA's Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median is 10.4% above the U.S. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median of $49,590 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 49-9071 and area 11180. SOC 49-9071 names Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. Area 11180 names Ames, IA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 49-9071/11180 row reports 670 wage and salary jobs, 12.03 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.22 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 49-9071/11180, the annual median is $54,770 per year, while the matching mean is $55,020 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 11180 facts behind this Maintenance and Repair Workers, General page
Area 11180 reports 55,890 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $61,910. Its annual median is $50,220. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 49-9071 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Ames, IA runs from $29,070 at the 10th percentile to $104,180 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,500. The median is $50,220. The 75th percentile is $76,070. This is a place check, not a pay range for Maintenance and Repair Workers, General.
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 11180. They do not show related skills or a path into Maintenance and Repair Workers, General.
1. Area 11180, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 1,620 jobs, $29,220 annual median, 28.93 jobs per 1,000, and 1.17 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Ames, IA wage ladder for Maintenance and Repair Workers, General
The 10th percentile is $37,480 per year. The 25th percentile is $45,230 per year. The median is $54,770 per year. The 75th percentile is $63,760 per year. The 90th percentile is $73,830 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 $45,230 per year to $63,760 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $36,350. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Ames, IA has a annual median of $54,770 per year. Iowa has $52,160 per year. The U.S. row has $49,590 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Ames, IA is 5.0% above Iowa on the same published median. Ames, IA is 10.4% 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 Ames, IA sits for Maintenance and Repair Workers, General
Ames, IA ranks 65 of 393 among metro areas with a published annual median for Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 65 of 393 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.
62. Worcester, MA has a Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median of $55,160 per year, 2,760 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.8.
63. Wenatchee-East Wenatchee, WA has a Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median of $55,100 per year, 760 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.51.
64. Yuba City, CA has a Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median of $55,100 per year, 380 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.75.
Pay leaders
Where Maintenance and Repair Workers, General medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 49-9071, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Kahului-Wailuku, HI has the highest published median in this set, at $63,980 per year. Ames, IA sits at $54,770 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Maintenance and Repair Workers, General 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. Kahului-Wailuku, HI has a Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median of $63,980 per year, or $9,210 above Ames, IA. BLS lists 1,350 jobs there, compared with 670 in Ames, IA. The location quotient is 1.86.
2. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median of $63,630 per year, or $8,860 above Ames, IA. BLS lists 18,550 jobs there, compared with 670 in Ames, IA. The location quotient is 0.79.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Maintenance and Repair Workers, General jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Maintenance and Repair Workers, General in this same-source set, at 108,700 jobs. Ames, IA has 670. 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. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 108,700 estimated Maintenance and Repair Workers, General jobs, a gap of 108,030 jobs from Ames, IA. Its median is $59,550 per year, or $4,780 above Ames, IA. Its location quotient is 1.16.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 47,890 estimated Maintenance and Repair Workers, General jobs, a gap of 47,220 jobs from Ames, IA. Its median is $56,520 per year, or $1,750 above Ames, IA. Its location quotient is 0.78.
Local-share leaders
Where Maintenance and Repair Workers, General takes the largest share of local jobs
Decatur, IL has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 3.02. Ames, IA has 1.22. 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 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General 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. Decatur, IL has a location quotient of 3.02, a gap of 1.80 from Ames, IA. BLS lists 1,350 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General jobs and a median of $61,380 per year, or $6,610 above Ames, IA.
2. Guayama, PR has a location quotient of 2.54, a gap of 1.32 from Ames, IA. BLS lists 310 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General jobs and a median of $23,220 per year, or $31,550 below Ames, IA.
3. Watertown-Fort Drum, NY has a location quotient of 1.97, a gap of 0.75 from Ames, IA. BLS lists 760 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General jobs and a median of $49,100 per year, or $5,670 below Ames, IA.
Job scale and share
How common Maintenance and Repair Workers, General is in Ames, IA
BLS lists 670 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General jobs in Ames, IA. It also lists 12.03 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 1.22. A value of 1 means Maintenance and Repair Workers, General 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.
Maintenance and Repair Workers, General beside other roles in Ames, IA
The all-occupations median in Ames, IA is $50,220 per year. The Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median is $54,770 per year. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General is 9.1% 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 Ames, IA. 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 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. 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 Ames, IA median of $54,510 per year. BLS lists 640 jobs and a location quotient of 0.87.
2. Educational, Guidance, and Career Counselors and Advisors, SOC 21-1012, has a Ames, IA median of $50,260 per year. BLS lists 400 jobs and a location quotient of 3.18.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Ames, IA
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Ames, IA table, at 1,620 jobs. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General has 670 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 55,890. 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 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 1,620 jobs in Ames, IA, a gap of 950 from Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. Its median is $29,220 per year, or $25,550 below Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. Its location quotient is 1.17.
2. Cashiers has 1,470 jobs in Ames, IA, a gap of 800 from Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. Its median is $29,230 per year, or $25,540 below Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. Its location quotient is 1.33.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Ames, IA
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Ames, IA role table, at $129,440 per year. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General has $54,770 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $50,220 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. Software Developers has a median of $129,440 per year in Ames, IA, or $74,670 above Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. BLS lists 470 jobs, compared with 670 for Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. Its location quotient is 0.77.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $97,700 per year in Ames, IA, or $42,930 above Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. BLS lists 1,040 jobs, compared with 670 for Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. Its location quotient is 0.82.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Ames, IA
Educational, Guidance, and Career Counselors and Advisors has the highest location quotient in the bounded Ames, IA role table, at 3.18. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General has 1.22. 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 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Educational, Guidance, and Career Counselors and Advisors has a location quotient of 3.18 in Ames, IA, a gap of 1.96 from Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. BLS lists 400 jobs and a median of $50,260 per year, or $4,510 below Maintenance and Repair Workers, General.
2. Business Operations Specialists, All Other has a location quotient of 1.82 in Ames, IA, a gap of 0.60 from Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. BLS lists 710 jobs and a median of $76,510 per year, or $21,740 above Maintenance and Repair Workers, General.
Price-level view
What $54,770 may mean after the Ames, IA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Ames, IA is 88.8. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 11.2% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $54,770 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General median by 88.8 divided by 100. The result is $61,657 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 69.2. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 83.0. 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 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General row is 4.1%. 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 670 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $55,020 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 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General. It uses a Ames, IA 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 $54,770 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 Maintenance and Repair Workers, General row for Ames, IA 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 670 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.22 is not a growth score. Rank 65 of 393 is not a place score. The 88.8 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 49-9071 in BLS area 11180. 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 670 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.
