Trenton-Princeton, NJ was 2.5% below the U.S. median for Mechanical Engineers. It ranked 135 of 346 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Mechanical Engineers median says in Trenton-Princeton, NJ
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Mechanical Engineers median in Trenton-Princeton, NJ at $101,470 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 17-2141 and BLS area 45940.
BLS lists 200 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 $109,380 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Trenton-Princeton, NJ's Mechanical Engineers median is 2.5% below the U.S. Mechanical Engineers median of $104,110 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 17-2141 and area 45940. SOC 17-2141 names Mechanical Engineers. Area 45940 names Trenton-Princeton, NJ. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 17-2141/45940 row reports 200 wage and salary jobs, 0.82 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.43 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 17-2141/45940, the annual median is $101,470 per year, while the matching mean is $109,380 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 45940 facts behind this Mechanical Engineers page
Area 45940 reports 240,190 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $82,560. Its annual median is $63,490. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 17-2141 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Trenton-Princeton, NJ runs from $35,100 at the 10th percentile to $152,950 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $43,300. The median is $63,490. The 75th percentile is $101,630. This is a place check, not a pay range for Mechanical Engineers.
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 45940. They do not show related skills or a path into Mechanical Engineers.
1. Area 45940, SOC 13-1199, Business Operations Specialists, All Other: 5,570 jobs, $89,370 annual median, 23.18 jobs per 1,000, and 3.32 location quotient.
2. Area 45940, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 5,180 jobs, $99,990 annual median, 21.56 jobs per 1,000, and 0.99 location quotient.
3. Area 45940, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 4,920 jobs, $37,760 annual median, 20.47 jobs per 1,000, and 0.74 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Trenton-Princeton, NJ wage ladder for Mechanical Engineers
The 10th percentile is $77,580 per year. The 25th percentile is $85,300 per year. The median is $101,470 per year. The 75th percentile is $129,580 per year. The 90th percentile is $155,500 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 $85,300 per year to $129,580 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $77,920. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Trenton-Princeton, NJ with its state and the U.S.
Trenton-Princeton, NJ has a annual median of $101,470 per year. New Jersey has $112,300 per year. The U.S. row has $104,110 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Trenton-Princeton, NJ is 9.6% below New Jersey on the same published median. Trenton-Princeton, NJ is 2.5% 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 Trenton-Princeton, NJ sits for Mechanical Engineers
Trenton-Princeton, NJ ranks 135 of 346 among metro areas with a published annual median for Mechanical Engineers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 135 of 346 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.
132. Greenville-Anderson-Greer, SC has a Mechanical Engineers median of $101,570 per year, 1,800 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.17.
133. Reno, NV has a Mechanical Engineers median of $101,520 per year, 570 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.09.
134. Salt Lake City-Murray, UT has a Mechanical Engineers median of $101,500 per year, 1,600 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.01.
136. Chambersburg, PA has a Mechanical Engineers median of $101,400 per year, 130 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.16.
Pay leaders
Where Mechanical Engineers medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 17-2141, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has the highest published median in this set, at $168,030 per year. Trenton-Princeton, NJ sits at $101,470 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Mechanical Engineers 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. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Mechanical Engineers median of $168,030 per year, or $66,560 above Trenton-Princeton, NJ. BLS lists 5,540 jobs there, compared with 200 in Trenton-Princeton, NJ. The location quotient is 2.56.
2. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a Mechanical Engineers median of $161,370 per year, or $59,900 above Trenton-Princeton, NJ. BLS lists 5,150 jobs there, compared with 200 in Trenton-Princeton, NJ. The location quotient is 1.14.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Mechanical Engineers jobs
Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI has the largest published metro job estimate for Mechanical Engineers in this same-source set, at 22,500 jobs. Trenton-Princeton, NJ has 200. 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. Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI has 22,500 estimated Mechanical Engineers jobs, a gap of 22,300 jobs from Trenton-Princeton, NJ. Its median is $109,470 per year, or $8,000 above Trenton-Princeton, NJ. Its location quotient is 6.19.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 8,780 estimated Mechanical Engineers jobs, a gap of 8,580 jobs from Trenton-Princeton, NJ. Its median is $123,900 per year, or $22,430 above Trenton-Princeton, NJ. Its location quotient is 0.73.
Local-share leaders
Where Mechanical Engineers takes the largest share of local jobs
Columbus, IN has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 10.52. Trenton-Princeton, NJ has 0.43. 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 Mechanical Engineers 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 10.52, a gap of 10.09 from Trenton-Princeton, NJ. BLS lists 1,000 Mechanical Engineers jobs and a median of $127,700 per year, or $26,230 above Trenton-Princeton, NJ.
2. Peoria, IL has a location quotient of 6.7, a gap of 6.27 from Trenton-Princeton, NJ. BLS lists 2,120 Mechanical Engineers jobs and a median of $128,710 per year, or $27,240 above Trenton-Princeton, NJ.
3. Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI has a location quotient of 6.19, a gap of 5.76 from Trenton-Princeton, NJ. BLS lists 22,500 Mechanical Engineers jobs and a median of $109,470 per year, or $8,000 above Trenton-Princeton, NJ.
Job scale and share
How common Mechanical Engineers is in Trenton-Princeton, NJ
BLS lists 200 Mechanical Engineers jobs in Trenton-Princeton, NJ. It also lists 0.82 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 0.43. A value of 1 means Mechanical Engineers 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.
Mechanical Engineers beside other roles in Trenton-Princeton, NJ
The all-occupations median in Trenton-Princeton, NJ is $63,490 per year. The Mechanical Engineers median is $101,470 per year. Mechanical Engineers is 59.8% 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 Trenton-Princeton, NJ. 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 Mechanical Engineers. 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. Management Analysts, SOC 13-1111, has a Trenton-Princeton, NJ median of $102,020 per year. BLS lists 2,810 jobs and a location quotient of 2.02.
2. Registered Nurses, SOC 29-1141, has a Trenton-Princeton, NJ median of $99,990 per year. BLS lists 5,180 jobs and a location quotient of 0.99.
3. Accountants and Auditors, SOC 13-2011, has a Trenton-Princeton, NJ median of $99,550 per year. BLS lists 2,890 jobs and a location quotient of 1.29.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Trenton-Princeton, NJ
Business Operations Specialists, All Other is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Trenton-Princeton, NJ table, at 5,570 jobs. Mechanical Engineers has 200 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 240,190. 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 Mechanical Engineers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Business Operations Specialists, All Other has 5,570 jobs in Trenton-Princeton, NJ, a gap of 5,370 from Mechanical Engineers. Its median is $89,370 per year, or $12,100 below Mechanical Engineers. Its location quotient is 3.32.
2. Registered Nurses has 5,180 jobs in Trenton-Princeton, NJ, a gap of 4,980 from Mechanical Engineers. Its median is $99,990 per year, or $1,480 below Mechanical Engineers. Its location quotient is 0.99.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Trenton-Princeton, NJ
Computer and Information Systems Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Trenton-Princeton, NJ role table, at $197,420 per year. Mechanical Engineers has $101,470 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $63,490 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. Computer and Information Systems Managers has a median of $197,420 per year in Trenton-Princeton, NJ, or $95,950 above Mechanical Engineers. BLS lists 2,000 jobs, compared with 200 for Mechanical Engineers. Its location quotient is 1.93.
2. Financial Managers has a median of $184,800 per year in Trenton-Princeton, NJ, or $83,330 above Mechanical Engineers. BLS lists 2,460 jobs, compared with 200 for Mechanical Engineers. Its location quotient is 1.89.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Trenton-Princeton, NJ
Natural Sciences Managers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Trenton-Princeton, NJ role table, at 12.78. Mechanical Engineers has 0.43. 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 Mechanical Engineers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Natural Sciences Managers has a location quotient of 12.78 in Trenton-Princeton, NJ, a gap of 12.35 from Mechanical Engineers. BLS lists 2,150 jobs and a median of $182,230 per year, or $80,760 above Mechanical Engineers.
2. Business Operations Specialists, All Other has a location quotient of 3.32 in Trenton-Princeton, NJ, a gap of 2.89 from Mechanical Engineers. BLS lists 5,570 jobs and a median of $89,370 per year, or $12,100 below Mechanical Engineers.
Price-level view
What $101,470 may mean after the Trenton-Princeton, NJ price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Trenton-Princeton, NJ is 103.2. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 3.2% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $101,470 Mechanical Engineers median by 103.2 divided by 100. The result is $98,343 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 135.1. Goods are 99.8. Utilities are 112.3. Other services are 97.9. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
How much care to use with the Trenton-Princeton, NJ row
The employment RSE for this Mechanical Engineers row is 16.2%. The mean-wage RSE is 2.7%. 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 200 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $109,380 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 Trenton-Princeton, NJ wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Mechanical Engineers. It uses a Trenton-Princeton, NJ 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. Job cards can change without changing this guide. They do not count toward the 1,500-word content floor. A listing range does not replace the $101,470 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 Mechanical Engineers row for Trenton-Princeton, NJ 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 200 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.43 is not a growth score. Rank 135 of 346 is not a place score. The 103.2 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 17-2141 in BLS area 45940. 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 200 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.
