What the Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers median says in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers median in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI at $37,940 per year.

BLS lists 370 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 $41,090 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.

The state and U.S. rows are benchmarks, 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.
Like-for-like rank
Where Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI sits for Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers
Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI ranks 54 of 133 among metro areas with a published annual median for Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 54 of 133 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.
51. Sacramento-Roseville-Folsom, CA. The Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers median is $38,020 per year. BLS estimates 400 jobs. The location quotient is 0.39.
52. Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers, AR. The Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers median is $37,980 per year. BLS estimates 2,500 jobs. The location quotient is 9.7.
53. Hanford-Corcoran, CA. The Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers median is $37,950 per year. BLS estimates 50 jobs. The location quotient is 1.02.
Pay leaders
Where Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 51-3022, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Topeka, KS has the highest published median in this set, at $52,050 per year. Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI sits at $37,940 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers 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 limits, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. Topeka, KS has a Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers median of $52,050 per year, or $14,110 above Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. BLS lists 120 jobs there, compared with 370 in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. The location quotient is 1.14.
2. Sheboygan, WI has a Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers median of $50,410 per year, or $12,470 above Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. BLS lists 70 jobs there, compared with 370 in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. The location quotient is 1.16.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers jobs
Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has the largest published metro job estimate for Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers in this same-source set, at 4,340 jobs. Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI has 370. 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. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 4,340 estimated Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers jobs, a gap of 3,970 jobs from Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. Its median is $36,540 per year, or $1,400 below Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. Its location quotient is 0.74.
2. Gainesville, GA has 3,210 estimated Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers jobs, a gap of 2,840 jobs from Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. Its median is $39,420 per year, or $1,480 above Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. Its location quotient is 32.96.
Local-share leaders
Where Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers takes the largest share of local jobs
Gainesville, GA has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 32.96. Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI has 0.66. 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 Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers 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. Gainesville, GA has a location quotient of 32.96, a gap of 32.30 from Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. BLS lists 3,210 Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers jobs and a median of $39,420 per year, or $1,480 above Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI.
2. Sioux City, IA-NE-SD has a location quotient of 24.17, a gap of 23.51 from Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. BLS lists 1,700 Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers jobs and a median of $47,580 per year, or $9,640 above Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI.
Job scale and share
How common Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers is in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI
BLS lists 370 Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers jobs in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI. It also lists 0.62 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 0.66. A value of 1 means Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers 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.
Local job mix
Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers beside other roles in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI
The all-occupations median in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI is $47,570 per year. The Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers median is $37,940 per year.

The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, 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 Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers. 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.

Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers has 370 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 598,260. 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 Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has 19,540 jobs in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI, a gap of 19,170 from Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers. Its median is $39,120 per year, or $1,180 above Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers. Its location quotient is 3.61.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI role table, at $101,720 per year. Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers has $37,940 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,570 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 $101,720 per year in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI, or $63,780 above Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers. BLS lists 10,880 jobs, compared with 370 for Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers. Its location quotient is 0.81.

Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI
Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI role table, at 3.61. Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers has 0.66. 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 Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers 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 3.61 in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI, a gap of 2.95 from Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers. BLS lists 19,540 jobs and a median of $39,120 per year, or $1,180 above Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers.

Price-level view
What $37,940 may mean after the Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI is 95.5. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 4.5% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $37,940 Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers median by 95.5 divided by 100. The result is $39,709 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 86.6. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 93.8. 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.
Data care
How much care to use with the Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI row
The employment RSE for this Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers row is 1.6%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. 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 370 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $41,090 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.
Job and résumé path
Use Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers. It uses a Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, 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 $37,940 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.
Limits
What the Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers row for Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, 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 370 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.66 is not a growth score. Rank 54 of 133 is not a place score. The 95.5 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 51-3022 in BLS area 24340. 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.
How many Meat, Poultry, and Fish Cutters and Trimmers jobs does BLS estimate in Grand Rapids-Wyoming-Kentwood, MI?
