Columbia, MO was 5.0% below the U.S. median for Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. It ranked 125 of 236 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median says in Columbia, MO
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median in Columbia, MO at $43,300 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 29-2057 and BLS area 17860.
BLS lists 40 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 $45,780 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Columbia, MO's Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median is 5.0% below the U.S. Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median of $45,570 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 29-2057 and area 17860. SOC 29-2057 names Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. Area 17860 names Columbia, MO. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 29-2057/17860 row reports 40 wage and salary jobs, 0.4 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.87 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 29-2057/17860, the annual median is $43,300 per year, while the matching mean is $45,780 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 17860 facts behind this Ophthalmic Medical Technicians page
Area 17860 reports 107,680 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $61,380. Its annual median is $47,260. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 29-2057 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Columbia, MO runs from $29,260 at the 10th percentile to $102,160 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $35,710. The median is $47,260. The 75th percentile is $71,580. This is a place check, not a pay range for Ophthalmic Medical Technicians.
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 17860. They do not show related skills or a path into Ophthalmic Medical Technicians.
1. Area 17860, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 3,680 jobs, $84,330 annual median, 34.22 jobs per 1,000, and 1.57 location quotient.
2. Area 17860, SOC 11-1021, General and Operations Managers: 3,440 jobs, $75,410 annual median, 31.96 jobs per 1,000, and 1.42 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Columbia, MO wage ladder for Ophthalmic Medical Technicians
The 10th percentile is $35,640 per year. The 25th percentile is $36,890 per year. The median is $43,300 per year. The 75th percentile is $55,640 per year. The 90th percentile is $55,640 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 $36,890 per year to $55,640 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $20,000. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Columbia, MO has a annual median of $43,300 per year. Missouri has $40,290 per year. The U.S. row has $45,570 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Columbia, MO is 7.5% above Missouri on the same published median. Columbia, MO is 5.0% 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 Columbia, MO sits for Ophthalmic Medical Technicians
Columbia, MO ranks 125 of 236 among metro areas with a published annual median for Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 125 of 236 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.
122. Tallahassee, FL has a Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median of $43,640 per year, 100 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.16.
123. Buffalo-Cheektowaga, NY has a Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median of $43,580 per year, 480 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.96.
124. York-Hanover, PA has a Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median of $43,400 per year, 100 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.2.
126. Scranton--Wilkes-Barre, PA has a Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median of $43,180 per year, 150 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.26.
Pay leaders
Where Ophthalmic Medical Technicians medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 29-2057, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Santa Rosa-Petaluma, CA has the highest published median in this set, at $102,540 per year. Columbia, MO sits at $43,300 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Ophthalmic Medical Technicians 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. Santa Rosa-Petaluma, CA has a Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median of $102,540 per year, or $59,240 above Columbia, MO. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with 40 in Columbia, MO. The location quotient is 0.42.
2. Durham-Chapel Hill, NC has a Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median of $65,000 per year, or $21,700 above Columbia, MO. BLS lists 130 jobs there, compared with 40 in Columbia, MO. The location quotient is 0.81.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Ophthalmic Medical Technicians jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Ophthalmic Medical Technicians in this same-source set, at 5,670 jobs. Columbia, MO has 40. 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 5,670 estimated Ophthalmic Medical Technicians jobs, a gap of 5,630 jobs from Columbia, MO. Its median is $55,100 per year, or $11,800 above Columbia, MO. Its location quotient is 1.31.
2. Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN has 2,390 estimated Ophthalmic Medical Technicians jobs, a gap of 2,350 jobs from Columbia, MO. Its median is $50,010 per year, or $6,710 above Columbia, MO. Its location quotient is 1.16.
Local-share leaders
Where Ophthalmic Medical Technicians takes the largest share of local jobs
Albany, GA has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 4.09. Columbia, MO has 0.87. 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 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians 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. Albany, GA has a location quotient of 4.09, a gap of 3.22 from Columbia, MO. BLS lists 110 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians jobs and a median of $36,030 per year, or $7,270 below Columbia, MO.
2. Dothan, AL has a location quotient of 4.01, a gap of 3.14 from Columbia, MO. BLS lists 110 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians jobs and a median of $35,550 per year, or $7,750 below Columbia, MO.
3. Victoria, TX has a location quotient of 3.34, a gap of 2.47 from Columbia, MO. BLS lists 60 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians jobs and a median of $36,980 per year, or $6,320 below Columbia, MO.
Job scale and share
How common Ophthalmic Medical Technicians is in Columbia, MO
BLS lists 40 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians jobs in Columbia, MO. It also lists 0.4 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 0.87. A value of 1 means Ophthalmic Medical Technicians 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.
Ophthalmic Medical Technicians beside other roles in Columbia, MO
The all-occupations median in Columbia, MO is $47,260 per year. The Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median is $43,300 per year. Ophthalmic Medical Technicians is 8.4% below 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 Columbia, MO. 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 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. 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. Office Clerks, General, SOC 43-9061, has a Columbia, MO median of $44,730 per year. BLS lists 2,330 jobs and a location quotient of 1.37.
2. Nursing Assistants, SOC 31-1131, has a Columbia, MO median of $41,290 per year. BLS lists 2,040 jobs and a location quotient of 2.03.
3. Customer Service Representatives, SOC 43-4051, has a Columbia, MO median of $41,210 per year. BLS lists 1,870 jobs and a location quotient of 1.04.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Columbia, MO
Registered Nurses is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Columbia, MO table, at 3,680 jobs. Ophthalmic Medical Technicians has 40 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 107,680. 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 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Registered Nurses has 3,680 jobs in Columbia, MO, a gap of 3,640 from Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. Its median is $84,330 per year, or $41,030 above Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.57.
2. General and Operations Managers has 3,440 jobs in Columbia, MO, a gap of 3,400 from Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. Its median is $75,410 per year, or $32,110 above Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.42.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Columbia, MO
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Columbia, MO role table, at $84,330 per year. Ophthalmic Medical Technicians has $43,300 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,260 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 $84,330 per year in Columbia, MO, or $41,030 above Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. BLS lists 3,680 jobs, compared with 40 for Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.57.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $75,410 per year in Columbia, MO, or $32,110 above Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. BLS lists 3,440 jobs, compared with 40 for Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.42.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Columbia, MO
Family Medicine Physicians has the highest location quotient in the bounded Columbia, MO role table, at 9.93. Ophthalmic Medical Technicians has 0.87. 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 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Family Medicine Physicians has a location quotient of 9.93 in Columbia, MO, a gap of 9.06 from Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. BLS lists 740 jobs and a median of $69,590 per year, or $26,290 above Ophthalmic Medical Technicians.
2. Cooks, Fast Food has a location quotient of 5.57 in Columbia, MO, a gap of 4.70 from Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. BLS lists 2,470 jobs and a median of $29,110 per year, or $14,190 below Ophthalmic Medical Technicians.
Price-level view
What $43,300 may mean after the Columbia, MO price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Columbia, MO is 89.4. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 10.6% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $43,300 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians median by 89.4 divided by 100. The result is $48,413 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 94.2. Utilities are 86.0. Other services are 93.0. 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 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians row is 25.1%. The mean-wage RSE is 2.2%. 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 40 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $45,780 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 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians. It uses a Columbia, MO 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 $43,300 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 Ophthalmic Medical Technicians row for Columbia, MO 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 40 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.87 is not a growth score. Rank 125 of 236 is not a place score. The 89.4 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 29-2057 in BLS area 17860. 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 40 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.
