BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Worcester, MA was 102.5, or 2.5% above the national price level. Its housing index was 113.

WageScope divides the published Orderlies 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 31-1132 and BLS area 49340.

Worcester, MA was 5.9% below the U.S. median for Orderlies. It ranked 77 of 122 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Orderlies median in Worcester, MA at $36,050 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 31-1132 and BLS area 49340.
BLS lists 180 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 $40,770 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Worcester, MA's Orderlies median is 5.9% below the U.S. Orderlies median of $38,290 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 31-1132 and area 49340. SOC 31-1132 names Orderlies. Area 49340 names Worcester, MA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 31-1132/49340 row reports 180 wage and salary jobs, 0.52 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.54 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 31-1132/49340, the annual median is $36,050 per year, while the matching mean is $40,770 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 49340 reports 349,880 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $73,600. Its annual median is $57,830. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 31-1132 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Worcester, MA runs from $35,270 at the 10th percentile to $127,400 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $41,000. The median is $57,830. The 75th percentile is $87,870. This is a place check, not a pay range for Orderlies.
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 49340. They do not show related skills or a path into Orderlies.
1. Area 49340, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 14,720 jobs, $40,870 annual median, 42.06 jobs per 1,000, and 1.52 location quotient.
2. Area 49340, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 10,070 jobs, $100,240 annual median, 28.77 jobs per 1,000, and 1.32 location quotient.
3. Area 49340, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 8,830 jobs, $36,220 annual median, 25.23 jobs per 1,000, and 1.01 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Worcester, MA wage ladder for Orderlies
The 10th percentile is $36,000 per year. The 25th percentile is $36,050 per year. The median is $36,050 per year. The 75th percentile is $44,260 per year. The 90th percentile is $48,740 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 $36,050 per year to $44,260 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $12,740. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Worcester, MA has a annual median of $36,050 per year. Massachusetts has $38,970 per year. The U.S. row has $38,290 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Worcester, MA is 7.5% below Massachusetts on the same published median. Worcester, MA is 5.9% 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.
Worcester, MA ranks 77 of 122 among metro areas with a published annual median for Orderlies. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 77 of 122 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.
74. Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI has a Orderlies median of $36,220 per year, 820 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.27.
75. San Antonio-New Braunfels, TX has a Orderlies median of $36,210 per year, 190 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.5.
76. Louisville/Jefferson County, KY-IN has a Orderlies median of $36,170 per year, 280 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.22.
78. Green Bay, WI has a Orderlies median of $35,960 per year, 50 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.9.
Pay leaders
Where Orderlies medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 31-1132, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has the highest published median in this set, at $69,870 per year. Worcester, MA sits at $36,050 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Orderlies 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 Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a Orderlies median of $69,870 per year, or $33,820 above Worcester, MA. BLS lists 480 jobs there, compared with 180 in Worcester, MA. The location quotient is 0.61.
2. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Orderlies median of $65,790 per year, or $29,740 above Worcester, MA. BLS lists 300 jobs there, compared with 180 in Worcester, MA. The location quotient is 0.78.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Orderlies jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Orderlies in this same-source set, at 4,970 jobs. Worcester, MA has 180. 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 4,970 estimated Orderlies jobs, a gap of 4,790 jobs from Worcester, MA. Its median is $45,850 per year, or $9,800 above Worcester, MA. Its location quotient is 1.55.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 1,890 estimated Orderlies jobs, a gap of 1,710 jobs from Worcester, MA. Its median is $49,760 per year, or $13,710 above Worcester, MA. Its location quotient is 0.89.
Local-share leaders
Where Orderlies takes the largest share of local jobs
Florence, SC has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 4.62. Worcester, MA has 1.54. 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 Orderlies 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. Florence, SC has a location quotient of 4.62, a gap of 3.08 from Worcester, MA. BLS lists 140 Orderlies jobs and a median of $29,430 per year, or $6,620 below Worcester, MA.
2. Macon-Bibb County, GA has a location quotient of 3.54, a gap of 2.00 from Worcester, MA. BLS lists 110 Orderlies jobs and a median of $33,520 per year, or $2,530 below Worcester, MA.
3. Evansville, IN has a location quotient of 3.41, a gap of 1.87 from Worcester, MA. BLS lists 160 Orderlies jobs and a median of $35,270 per year, or $780 below Worcester, MA.
Job scale and share
How common Orderlies is in Worcester, MA
BLS lists 180 Orderlies jobs in Worcester, MA. It also lists 0.52 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 1.54. A value of 1 means Orderlies 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.
The all-occupations median in Worcester, MA is $57,830 per year. The Orderlies median is $36,050 per year. Orderlies is 37.7% 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 Worcester, 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 Orderlies. 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. Retail Salespersons, SOC 41-2031, has a Worcester, MA median of $36,220 per year. BLS lists 8,830 jobs and a location quotient of 1.01.
2. Waiters and Waitresses, SOC 35-3031, has a Worcester, MA median of $36,840 per year. BLS lists 4,610 jobs and a location quotient of 0.9.
3. Stockers and Order Fillers, SOC 53-7065, has a Worcester, MA median of $37,250 per year. BLS lists 6,360 jobs and a location quotient of 1.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Worcester, MA
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Worcester, MA table, at 14,720 jobs. Orderlies has 180 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 349,880. 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 Orderlies's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 14,720 jobs in Worcester, MA, a gap of 14,540 from Orderlies. Its median is $40,870 per year, or $4,820 above Orderlies. Its location quotient is 1.52.
2. Registered Nurses has 10,070 jobs in Worcester, MA, a gap of 9,890 from Orderlies. Its median is $100,240 per year, or $64,190 above Orderlies. Its location quotient is 1.32.
3. Retail Salespersons has 8,830 jobs in Worcester, MA, a gap of 8,650 from Orderlies. Its median is $36,220 per year, or $170 above Orderlies. Its location quotient is 1.01.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Worcester, MA
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Worcester, MA role table, at $111,900 per year. Orderlies has $36,050 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $57,830 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 $111,900 per year in Worcester, MA, or $75,850 above Orderlies. BLS lists 7,910 jobs, compared with 180 for Orderlies. Its location quotient is 1.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $100,240 per year in Worcester, MA, or $64,190 above Orderlies. BLS lists 10,070 jobs, compared with 180 for Orderlies. Its location quotient is 1.32.
3. Accountants and Auditors has a median of $94,070 per year in Worcester, MA, or $58,020 above Orderlies. BLS lists 3,090 jobs, compared with 180 for Orderlies. Its location quotient is 0.95.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Worcester, MA
Substance Abuse, Behavioral Disorder, and Mental Health Counselors has the highest location quotient in the bounded Worcester, MA role table, at 2.22. Orderlies has 1.54. 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 Orderlies with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Substance Abuse, Behavioral Disorder, and Mental Health Counselors has a location quotient of 2.22 in Worcester, MA, a gap of 0.68 from Orderlies. BLS lists 2,460 jobs and a median of $57,950 per year, or $21,900 above Orderlies.
2. Nursing Assistants has a location quotient of 1.61 in Worcester, MA, a gap of 0.07 from Orderlies. BLS lists 5,250 jobs and a median of $45,710 per year, or $9,660 above Orderlies.
3. Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary has a location quotient of 1.58 in Worcester, MA, a gap of 0.04 from Orderlies. BLS lists 5,050 jobs and a median of $39,240 per year, or $3,190 above Orderlies.
Price-level view
What $36,050 may mean after the Worcester, MA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Worcester, MA is 102.5. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 2.5% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $36,050 Orderlies median by 102.5 divided by 100. The result is $35,163 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 113.0. Goods are 97.0. Utilities are 155.2. 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.
The employment RSE for this Orderlies row is 0.8%. 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 180 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $40,770 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 Orderlies. It uses a Worcester, 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. 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 $36,050 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 Orderlies row for Worcester, 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 180 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.54 is not a growth score. Rank 77 of 122 is not a place score. The 102.5 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 31-1132 in BLS area 49340. 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.
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.
