Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area was 40.8% below the U.S. median for Paralegals and Legal Assistants. It ranked 130 of 133 nonmetro areas. We rank only areas with a published annual median. These pay gaps leave out prices, benefits, and skills. They also leave out the mix of firms and work hours.
What the Paralegals and Legal Assistants median says in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Paralegals and Legal Assistants median in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area at $37,250 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 23-2011 and BLS area 5400001.
BLS lists 70 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 $46,860 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area's Paralegals and Legal Assistants median is 40.8% below the U.S. Paralegals and Legal Assistants median of $62,890 on the same published median. Both values use the same job code and source date. They do not account for prices, taxes, benefits, hours, or your work history.

Same-source checks
Compare Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $37,250 per year. West Virginia has $59,000 per year. The U.S. row has $62,890 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area is 36.9% below West Virginia on the same published median. Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area is 40.8% 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 benchmarks, 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 Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area sits for Paralegals and Legal Assistants
Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area ranks 130 of 133 among nonmetro areas with a published annual median for Paralegals and Legal Assistants. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 130 of 133 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.
127. West Kentucky nonmetropolitan area. The Paralegals and Legal Assistants median is $38,480 per year. BLS estimates 120 jobs. The location quotient is 0.37.
128. Guam (nonmetro area). The Paralegals and Legal Assistants median is $37,920 per year. BLS estimates 110 jobs. The location quotient is 0.65.

Pay leaders
Where Paralegals and Legal Assistants medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 23-2011, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Northwest Colorado nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $74,210 per year. Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area sits at $37,250 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Paralegals and Legal Assistants 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 limits, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. Northwest Colorado nonmetropolitan area has a Paralegals and Legal Assistants median of $74,210 per year, or $36,960 above Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 100 jobs there, compared with 70 in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 0.3.
2. Alaska nonmetropolitan area has a Paralegals and Legal Assistants median of $73,380 per year, or $36,130 above Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 120 jobs there, compared with 70 in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 0.44.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Paralegals and Legal Assistants jobs
Eastern North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Paralegals and Legal Assistants in this same-source set, at 680 jobs. Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area has 70. 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. Eastern North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has 680 estimated Paralegals and Legal Assistants jobs, a gap of 610 jobs from Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $55,860 per year, or $18,610 above Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 1.01.
2. Western North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has 500 estimated Paralegals and Legal Assistants jobs, a gap of 430 jobs from Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $46,520 per year, or $9,270 above Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 0.78.
Local-share leaders
Where Paralegals and Legal Assistants takes the largest share of local jobs
Central New Hampshire nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 1.45. Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area has 0.38. 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 Paralegals and Legal Assistants 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. Central New Hampshire nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 1.45, a gap of 1.07 from Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 370 Paralegals and Legal Assistants jobs and a median of $61,960 per year, or $24,710 above Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area.
2. Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) has a location quotient of 1.11, a gap of 0.73 from Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 90 Paralegals and Legal Assistants jobs and a median of $52,140 per year, or $14,890 above Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area.
Job scale and share
How common Paralegals and Legal Assistants is in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists 70 Paralegals and Legal Assistants jobs in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. It also lists 0.96 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 0.38. A value of 1 means Paralegals and Legal Assistants 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.
Local job mix
Paralegals and Legal Assistants beside other roles in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area
The all-occupations median in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area is $40,840 per year. The Paralegals and Legal Assistants median is $37,250 per year.

The nearby role medians below come from the bounded detailed-role table for Southern West Virginia 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 Paralegals and Legal Assistants. 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. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive, SOC 43-6014, has a Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area median of $36,790 per year. BLS lists 970 jobs and a location quotient of 1.16.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area table, at 3,160 jobs. Paralegals and Legal Assistants has 70 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 75,980. 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 Paralegals and Legal Assistants's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 3,160 jobs in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 3,090 from Paralegals and Legal Assistants. Its median is $27,400 per year, or $9,850 below Paralegals and Legal Assistants. Its location quotient is 1.5.
2. Cashiers has 2,570 jobs in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 2,500 from Paralegals and Legal Assistants. Its median is $22,860 per year, or $14,390 below Paralegals and Legal Assistants. Its location quotient is 1.7.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area
First-Line Supervisors of Construction Trades and Extraction Workers has the highest published median in the bounded Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area role table, at $99,630 per year. Paralegals and Legal Assistants has $37,250 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $40,840 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. First-Line Supervisors of Construction Trades and Extraction Workers has a median of $99,630 per year in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area, or $62,380 above Paralegals and Legal Assistants. BLS lists 840 jobs, compared with 70 for Paralegals and Legal Assistants. Its location quotient is 2.11.
2. Electricians has a median of $76,970 per year in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area, or $39,720 above Paralegals and Legal Assistants. BLS lists 660 jobs, compared with 70 for Paralegals and Legal Assistants. Its location quotient is 1.79.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area
Operating Engineers and Other Construction Equipment Operators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area role table, at 6.38. Paralegals and Legal Assistants has 0.38. 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 Paralegals and Legal Assistants with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Operating Engineers and Other Construction Equipment Operators has a location quotient of 6.38 in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 6.00 from Paralegals and Legal Assistants. BLS lists 1,490 jobs and a median of $50,930 per year, or $13,680 above Paralegals and Legal Assistants.
2. Cooks, Fast Food has a location quotient of 6.22 in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 5.84 from Paralegals and Legal Assistants. BLS lists 1,950 jobs and a median of $23,030 per year, or $14,220 below Paralegals and Legal Assistants.
Price-level view
What $37,250 may mean after the Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $37,250 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 Paralegals and Legal Assistants 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 Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Paralegals and Legal Assistants row is 23.2%. The mean-wage RSE is 8%. 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 70 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $46,860 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 Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Paralegals and Legal Assistants. It uses a Southern West Virginia 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 $37,250 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 Paralegals and Legal Assistants row for Southern West Virginia 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 70 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.38 is not a growth score. Rank 130 of 133 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 23-2011 in BLS area 5400001. 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 Paralegals and Legal Assistants jobs does BLS estimate in Southern West Virginia nonmetropolitan area?
BLS estimates 70 wage and salary jobs for this row. This is a survey estimate. It does not count open jobs or predict future hiring.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. We show job posts in a separate list. Each has its own source and check date. Posted pay does not change the BLS pay data.
