What the Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median says in Georgia
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median in Georgia at $46,310 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 51-9123 and BLS area 13.
BLS lists 60 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 $47,490 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Georgia's Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median is 11.3% above the U.S. Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median of $41,600 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 51-9123 and area 13. SOC 51-9123 names Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. Area 13 names Georgia. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 51-9123/13 row reports 60 wage and salary jobs, 0.01 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.24 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 51-9123/13, the annual median is $46,310 per year, while the matching mean is $47,490 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 13 facts behind this Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers page
Area 13 reports 4,889,170 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $65,920. Its annual median is $48,170. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 51-9123 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Georgia runs from $27,930 at the 10th percentile to $122,470 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $35,700. The median is $48,170. The 75th percentile is $77,570. This is a place check, not a pay range for Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers.
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 13. They do not show related skills or a path into Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers.
1. Area 13, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 145,030 jobs, $26,920 annual median, 29.67 jobs per 1,000, and 1.2 location quotient.
2. Area 13, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 143,120 jobs, $30,840 annual median, 29.27 jobs per 1,000, and 1.17 location quotient.
3. Area 13, SOC 53-7062, Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand: 137,580 jobs, $38,480 annual median, 28.14 jobs per 1,000, and 1.48 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Georgia wage ladder for Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers
The 10th percentile is $31,210 per year. The 25th percentile is $37,580 per year. The median is $46,310 per year. The 75th percentile is $56,070 per year. The 90th percentile is $65,400 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 $37,580 per year to $56,070 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $34,190. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Georgia has a annual median of $46,310 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $41,600 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Georgia. Georgia is 11.3% 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.
Where Georgia sits for Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers
Georgia ranks 14 of 37 among states and territories with a published annual median for Painting, Coating, and Decorating 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 14 of 37 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.
11. Maryland has a Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median of $47,320 per year, 50 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.39.
12. Virginia has a Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median of $47,090 per year, 290 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.4.
13. Iowa has a Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median of $46,670 per year, 100 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.32.
15. Idaho has a Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median of $45,050 per year, Not published estimated jobs, and a location quotient of Not published.
Pay leaders
Where Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 51-9123, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Washington has the highest published median in this set, at $61,210 per year. Georgia sits at $46,310 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Painting, Coating, and Decorating 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. Washington has a Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median of $61,210 per year, or $14,900 above Georgia. BLS lists 90 jobs there, compared with 60 in Georgia. The location quotient is 0.5.
2. Nevada has a Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median of $60,190 per year, or $13,880 above Georgia. BLS lists Not published jobs there, compared with 60 in Georgia. The location quotient is Not published.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers jobs
Florida has the largest published state job estimate for Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers in this same-source set, at 720 jobs. Georgia has 60. 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. Florida has 720 estimated Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers jobs, a gap of 660 jobs from Georgia. Its median is $37,440 per year, or $8,870 below Georgia. Its location quotient is 1.43.
2. Texas has 550 estimated Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers jobs, a gap of 490 jobs from Georgia. Its median is $32,430 per year, or $13,880 below Georgia. Its location quotient is 0.77.
Local-share leaders
Where Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers takes the largest share of local jobs
Wyoming has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 3.91. Georgia has 0.24. 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 Painting, Coating, and Decorating 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. Wyoming has a location quotient of 3.91, a gap of 3.67 from Georgia. BLS lists 60 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers jobs and a median of $37,090 per year, or $9,220 below Georgia.
2. Indiana has a location quotient of 2.98, a gap of 2.74 from Georgia. BLS lists 490 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers jobs and a median of $41,350 per year, or $4,960 below Georgia.
3. Kentucky has a location quotient of 1.92, a gap of 1.68 from Georgia. BLS lists 200 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers jobs and a median of $42,220 per year, or $4,090 below Georgia.
Job scale and share
How common Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers is in Georgia
BLS lists 60 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers jobs in Georgia. It also lists 0.01 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 0.24. A value of 1 means Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers 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.
Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers beside other roles in Georgia
The all-occupations median in Georgia is $48,170 per year. The Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median is $46,310 per year. Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers is 3.9% 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 Georgia. 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 Painting, Coating, and Decorating 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.
1. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General, SOC 49-9071, has a Georgia median of $47,680 per year. BLS lists 48,430 jobs and a location quotient of 1.01.
2. Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Auditing Clerks, SOC 43-3031, has a Georgia median of $49,350 per year. BLS lists 38,700 jobs and a location quotient of 0.9.
3. Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators, SOC 53-7051, has a Georgia median of $43,210 per year. BLS lists 50,260 jobs and a location quotient of 2.06.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Georgia
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Georgia table, at 145,030 jobs. Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers has 60 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 4,889,170. 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 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 145,030 jobs in Georgia, a gap of 144,970 from Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. Its median is $26,920 per year, or $19,390 below Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. Its location quotient is 1.2.
2. Retail Salespersons has 143,120 jobs in Georgia, a gap of 143,060 from Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. Its median is $30,840 per year, or $15,470 below Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. Its location quotient is 1.17.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Georgia
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Georgia role table, at $131,010 per year. Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers has $46,310 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $48,170 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. Software Developers has a median of $131,010 per year in Georgia, or $84,700 above Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. BLS lists 49,700 jobs, compared with 60 for Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. Its location quotient is 0.94.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $103,730 per year in Georgia, or $57,420 above Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. BLS lists 111,060 jobs, compared with 60 for Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. Its location quotient is 1.01.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Georgia
Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Georgia role table, at 2.06. Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers has 0.24. 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 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators has a location quotient of 2.06 in Georgia, a gap of 1.82 from Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. BLS lists 50,260 jobs and a median of $43,210 per year, or $3,100 below Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers.
2. Business Operations Specialists, All Other has a location quotient of 1.97 in Georgia, a gap of 1.73 from Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. BLS lists 67,450 jobs and a median of $78,410 per year, or $32,100 above Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers.
Price-level view
What $46,310 may mean after the Georgia price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Georgia is 96.3. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 3.7% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $46,310 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers median by 96.3 divided by 100. The result is $48,093 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 88.7. Goods are 98.9. Utilities are 92.8. Other services are 97.3. 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 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers row is 31.9%. The mean-wage RSE is 6.5%. 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 60 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $47,490 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 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers. It uses a Georgia 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 $46,310 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 Painting, Coating, and Decorating Workers row for Georgia 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 60 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.24 is not a growth score. Rank 14 of 37 is not a place score. The 96.3 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 51-9123 in BLS area 13. 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 60 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.
