WageScope divides the published Optometrists median by the BEA all-items index. This is a price-level comparison, not take-home pay, a personal budget, or a quality-of-life score.
Use the local pay range, same-source bench marks, job scale, price level, and survey care marks as separate facts. This guide stays tied to SOC 29-1041 and BLS area 12700.

42,790
2.8%
Barnstable Town, MA was 13.0% above the U.S. median for Optometrists. It ranked 42 of 183 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Optometrists median says in Barnstable Town, MA
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Optometrists median in Barnstable Town, MA at $154,290 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 29-1041 and BLS area 12700.
BLS lists 30 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 $156,380 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Barnstable Town, MA's Optometrists median is 13.0% above the U.S. Optometrists median of $136,570 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 29-1041 and area 12700. SOC 29-1041 names Optometrists. Area 12700 names Barnstable Town, MA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 29-1041/12700 row reports 30 wage and salary jobs, 0.34 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.22 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 29-1041/12700, the annual median is $154,290 per year, while the matching mean is $156,380 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 12700 facts behind this Optometrists page
Area 12700 reports 94,110 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $69,930. Its annual median is $56,360. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.6%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 29-1041 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Barnstable Town, MA runs from $35,880 at the 10th percentile to $117,860 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $40,050. The median is $56,360. The 75th percentile is $81,200. This is a place check, not a pay range for Optometrists.
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 12700. They do not show related skills or a path into Optometrists.
1. Area 12700, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 3,650 jobs, $36,790 annual median, 38.79 jobs per 1,000, and 1.55 location quotient.

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 $131,830 per year to $191,420 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $110,020. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Barnstable Town, MA with its state and the U.S.
Barnstable Town, MA has a annual median of $154,290 per year. Massachusetts has $151,730 per year. The U.S. row has $136,570 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Barnstable Town, MA is 1.7% above Massachusetts on the same published median. Barnstable Town, MA is 13.0% 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.
Barnstable Town, MA ranks 42 of 183 among metro areas with a published annual median for Optometrists. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 42 of 183 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.
39. Boston-Cambridge-Newton, MA-NH has a Optometrists median of $154,970 per year, 710 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.96.
40. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has a Optometrists median of $154,690 per year, 770 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.89.
41. Charleston-North Charleston, SC has a Optometrists median of $154,660 per year, 70 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.64.
43. Pensacola-Ferry Pass-Brent, FL has a Optometrists median of $154,050 per year, 70 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.26.
Pay leaders
Where Optometrists medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 29-1041, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. La Crosse-Onalaska, WI-MN has the highest published median in this set, at $175,810 per year. Barnstable Town, MA sits at $154,290 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Optometrists 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. La Crosse-Onalaska, WI-MN has a Optometrists median of $175,810 per year, or $21,520 above Barnstable Town, MA. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with 30 in Barnstable Town, MA. The location quotient is 1.72.
2. Asheville, NC has a Optometrists median of $167,980 per year, or $13,690 above Barnstable Town, MA. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with 30 in Barnstable Town, MA. The location quotient is 0.82.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Optometrists jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Optometrists in this same-source set, at 2,580 jobs. Barnstable Town, MA has 30. 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 2,580 estimated Optometrists jobs, a gap of 2,550 jobs from Barnstable Town, MA. Its median is $161,030 per year, or $6,740 above Barnstable Town, MA. Its location quotient is 0.99.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 2,360 estimated Optometrists jobs, a gap of 2,330 jobs from Barnstable Town, MA. Its median is $138,940 per year, or $15,350 below Barnstable Town, MA. Its location quotient is 1.37.
Local-share leaders
Where Optometrists takes the largest share of local jobs
Albany, GA has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 2.58. Barnstable Town, MA 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 Optometrists 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 2.58, a gap of 1.36 from Barnstable Town, MA. BLS lists 40 Optometrists jobs and a median of $134,250 per year, or $20,040 below Barnstable Town, MA.
2. San Antonio-New Braunfels, TX has a location quotient of 2.36, a gap of 1.14 from Barnstable Town, MA. BLS lists 730 Optometrists jobs and a median of $111,780 per year, or $42,510 below Barnstable Town, MA.
3. Traverse City, MI has a location quotient of 2.34, a gap of 1.12 from Barnstable Town, MA. BLS lists 40 Optometrists jobs and a median of $118,030 per year, or $36,260 below Barnstable Town, MA.
Job scale and share
How common Optometrists is in Barnstable Town, MA
BLS lists 30 Optometrists jobs in Barnstable Town, MA. It also lists 0.34 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 Optometrists 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.
Optometrists beside other roles in Barnstable Town, MA
The all-occupations median in Barnstable Town, MA is $56,360 per year. The Optometrists median is $154,290 per year. Optometrists is 173.8% 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 Barnstable Town, MA. 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 Optometrists. 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. Registered Nurses, SOC 29-1141, has a Barnstable Town, MA median of $103,380 per year. BLS lists 1,860 jobs and a location quotient of 0.91.
2. Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education, SOC 25-2031, has a Barnstable Town, MA median of $101,120 per year. BLS lists 750 jobs and a location quotient of 1.16.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Barnstable Town, MA
Retail Salespersons is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Barnstable Town, MA table, at 3,650 jobs. Optometrists has 30 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 94,110. 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 Optometrists's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Retail Salespersons has 3,650 jobs in Barnstable Town, MA, a gap of 3,620 from Optometrists. Its median is $36,790 per year, or $117,500 below Optometrists. Its location quotient is 1.55.
2. General and Operations Managers has 3,210 jobs in Barnstable Town, MA, a gap of 3,180 from Optometrists. Its median is $100,590 per year, or $53,700 below Optometrists. Its location quotient is 1.52.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Barnstable Town, MA
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Barnstable Town, MA role table, at $103,380 per year. Optometrists has $154,290 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $56,360 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 $103,380 per year in Barnstable Town, MA, or $50,910 below Optometrists. BLS lists 1,860 jobs, compared with 30 for Optometrists. Its location quotient is 0.91.
2. Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education has a median of $101,120 per year in Barnstable Town, MA, or $53,170 below Optometrists. BLS lists 750 jobs, compared with 30 for Optometrists. Its location quotient is 1.16.
3. General and Operations Managers has a median of $100,590 per year in Barnstable Town, MA, or $53,700 below Optometrists. BLS lists 3,210 jobs, compared with 30 for Optometrists. Its location quotient is 1.52.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Barnstable Town, MA
Landscaping and Groundskeeping Workers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Barnstable Town, MA role table, at 3.83. Optometrists 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 Optometrists with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Landscaping and Groundskeeping Workers has a location quotient of 3.83 in Barnstable Town, MA, a gap of 2.61 from Optometrists. BLS lists 2,210 jobs and a median of $49,010 per year, or $105,280 below Optometrists.
2. Carpenters has a location quotient of 3.15 in Barnstable Town, MA, a gap of 1.93 from Optometrists. BLS lists 1,280 jobs and a median of $70,580 per year, or $83,710 below Optometrists.
3. Waiters and Waitresses has a location quotient of 2.16 in Barnstable Town, MA, a gap of 0.94 from Optometrists. BLS lists 2,970 jobs and a median of $38,380 per year, or $115,910 below Optometrists.
Price-level view
What $154,290 may mean after the Barnstable Town, MA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Barnstable Town, MA is 98.4. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 1.6% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $154,290 Optometrists median by 98.4 divided by 100. The result is $156,877 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 90.0. Goods are 97.0. Utilities are 158.4. Other services are 101.2. 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 Barnstable Town, MA row
The employment RSE for this Optometrists row is 21.4%. The mean-wage RSE is 6.2%. 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 30 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $156,380 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 Barnstable Town, MA wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Optometrists. It uses a Barnstable Town, MA 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 $154,290 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 Optometrists row for Barnstable Town, MA 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 30 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.22 is not a growth score. Rank 42 of 183 is not a place score. The 98.4 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 29-1041 in BLS area 12700. 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 30 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.
