What the Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers median says in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers median in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area at $56,380 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 21-1023 and BLS area 4800006.
BLS lists Not published 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 $62,020 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area's Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers median is 6.5% below the U.S. Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers median of $60,280 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.
Exact source record
Read source key 21-1023 with area 4800006
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 21-1023 and area 4800006. SOC 21-1023 names Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers. Area 4800006 names Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 21-1023/4800006 row reports Not published wage and salary jobs, Not published jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a Not published location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 21-1023/4800006, the annual median is $56,380 per year, while the matching mean is $62,020 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

Same-source checks
Compare Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $56,380 per year. Texas has $46,630 per year. The U.S. row has $60,280 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area is 20.9% above Texas on the same published median. Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area is 6.5% 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.
Like-for-like rank
Where Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area sits for Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers
Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area ranks 47 of 106 among nonmetro areas with a published annual median for Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 47 of 106 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.
44. South Illinois nonmetropolitan area has a Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers median of $57,500 per year, 220 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.85.
45. Eastern North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has a Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers median of $57,370 per year, 210 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.94.

Pay leaders
Where Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 21-1023, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Eastern Sierra-Mother Lode Region of California nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $93,920 per year. Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area sits at $56,380 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers 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. Eastern Sierra-Mother Lode Region of California nonmetropolitan area has a Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers median of $93,920 per year, or $37,540 above Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with Not published in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 0.83.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers jobs
Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers in this same-source set, at 390 jobs. Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has Not published. 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. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has 390 estimated Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers jobs, a gap of not available jobs from Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $55,230 per year, or $1,150 below Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 3.19.
2. Southern Ohio nonmetropolitan area has 380 estimated Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers jobs, a gap of not available jobs from Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $45,130 per year, or $11,250 below Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 2.73.
Local-share leaders
Where Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers takes the largest share of local jobs
Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 3.19. Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has Not published. 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 Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers 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. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 3.19, a gap of not available from Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 390 Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers jobs and a median of $55,230 per year, or $1,150 below Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area.

Job scale and share
How common Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers is in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists Not published Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers jobs in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. It also lists Not published 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 Not published. A value of 1 means Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers has the same share of local jobs as it has across the nation. This row is not available for a share check. 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
Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers beside other roles in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area

The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Coastal Plains Region of Texas 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 Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers. 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.

The largest detailed roles in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area table, at 9,130 jobs. Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers has Not published 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 149,390. 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 Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 9,130 jobs in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, a gap of not available from Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
Detectives and Criminal Investigators has the highest published median in the bounded Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area role table, at $97,950 per year. Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers has $56,380 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $44,850 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. Detectives and Criminal Investigators has a median of $97,950 per year in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, or $41,570 above Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers. BLS lists 1,630 jobs, compared with Not published for Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers. Its location quotient is 14.85.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $88,390 per year in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, or $32,010 above Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers.

Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
Detectives and Criminal Investigators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area role table, at 14.85. Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers has Not published. 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 Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Detectives and Criminal Investigators has a location quotient of 14.85 in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, a gap of not available from Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers. BLS lists 1,630 jobs and a median of $97,950 per year, or $41,570 above Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers.

Price-level view
What $56,380 may mean after the Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $56,380 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 Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers 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.
Data care
How much care to use with the Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers row is Not published. The mean-wage RSE is 10.2%. 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 Not published job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $62,020 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.
Job and résumé path
Use Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers. It uses a Coastal Plains Region of Texas 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 $56,380 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 Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers row for Coastal Plains Region of Texas 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 Not published job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of Not published is not a growth score. Rank 47 of 106 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 21-1023 in BLS area 4800006. 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 Mental Health and Substance Abuse Social Workers jobs does BLS estimate in Coastal Plains Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area?
BLS published an employment estimate of Not published 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.
