Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC was 18.4% below the U.S. median for Paramedics. It ranked 217 of 266 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Paramedics median says in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Paramedics median in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC at $49,460 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 29-2043 and BLS area 25860.
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 $51,340 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC's Paramedics median is 18.4% below the U.S. Paramedics median of $60,600 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 29-2043 and area 25860. SOC 29-2043 names Paramedics. Area 25860 names Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 29-2043/25860 row reports 180 wage and salary jobs, 1.15 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.77 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 29-2043/25860, the annual median is $49,460 per year, while the matching mean is $51,340 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 25860 reports 154,090 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $54,360. Its annual median is $45,220. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 29-2043 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC runs from $28,020 at the 10th percentile to $85,830 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $35,080. The median is $45,220. The 75th percentile is $60,650. This is a place check, not a pay range for Paramedics.
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 25860. They do not show related skills or a path into Paramedics.
1. Area 25860, SOC 53-7062, Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand: 4,850 jobs, $40,240 annual median, 31.5 jobs per 1,000, and 1.66 location quotient.
2. Area 25860, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 4,000 jobs, $30,520 annual median, 25.99 jobs per 1,000, and 1.04 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC wage ladder for Paramedics
The 10th percentile is $48,570 per year. The 25th percentile is $48,570 per year. The median is $49,460 per year. The 75th percentile is $52,730 per year. The 90th percentile is $59,670 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 $48,570 per year to $52,730 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $11,100. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC with its state and the U.S.
Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC has a annual median of $49,460 per year. North Carolina has $57,320 per year. The U.S. row has $60,600 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC is 13.7% below North Carolina on the same published median. Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC is 18.4% 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 Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC sits for Paramedics
Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC ranks 217 of 266 among metro areas with a published annual median for Paramedics. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 217 of 266 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.
214. Columbus, GA-AL has a Paramedics median of $49,610 per year, 120 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.58.
215. Williamsport, PA has a Paramedics median of $49,610 per year, 70 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.19.
216. Joplin, MO-KS has a Paramedics median of $49,480 per year, 100 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.86.
218. Peoria, IL has a Paramedics median of $49,440 per year, 210 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.91.
Pay leaders
Where Paramedics medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 29-2043, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA has the highest published median in this set, at $123,310 per year. Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC sits at $49,460 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Paramedics 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. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA has a Paramedics median of $123,310 per year, or $73,850 above Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. BLS lists 750 jobs there, compared with 180 in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. The location quotient is 0.56.
2. Olympia-Lacey-Tumwater, WA has a Paramedics median of $120,260 per year, or $70,800 above Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. BLS lists 100 jobs there, compared with 180 in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. The location quotient is 1.2.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Paramedics jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Paramedics in this same-source set, at 3,850 jobs. Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC 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 3,850 estimated Paramedics jobs, a gap of 3,670 jobs from Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. Its median is $79,550 per year, or $30,090 above Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. Its location quotient is 0.63.
2. Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN has 2,560 estimated Paramedics jobs, a gap of 2,380 jobs from Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. Its median is $77,670 per year, or $28,210 above Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. Its location quotient is 0.88.
Local-share leaders
Where Paramedics takes the largest share of local jobs
Homosassa Springs, FL has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 4.79. Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC has 1.77. 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 Paramedics 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. Homosassa Springs, FL has a location quotient of 4.79, a gap of 3.02 from Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. BLS lists 110 Paramedics jobs and a median of $47,390 per year, or $2,070 below Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC.
2. Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ has a location quotient of 4.27, a gap of 2.50 from Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. BLS lists 160 Paramedics jobs and a median of $63,660 per year, or $14,200 above Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC.
3. Aguadilla, PR has a location quotient of 3.85, a gap of 2.08 from Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. BLS lists 120 Paramedics jobs and a median of $26,880 per year, or $22,580 below Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC.
Job scale and share
How common Paramedics is in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC
BLS lists 180 Paramedics jobs in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. It also lists 1.15 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 1.77. A value of 1 means Paramedics 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.
Paramedics beside other roles in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC
The all-occupations median in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC is $45,220 per year. The Paramedics median is $49,460 per year. Paramedics is 9.4% 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 Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC. 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 Paramedics. 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. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education, SOC 25-2021, has a Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC median of $49,540 per year. BLS lists 1,560 jobs and a location quotient of 1.14.
2. Electrical, Electronic, and Electromechanical Assemblers, Except Coil Winders, Tapers, and Finishers, SOC 51-2028, has a Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC median of $47,940 per year. BLS lists 1,340 jobs and a location quotient of 5.47.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC
Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC table, at 4,850 jobs. Paramedics 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 154,090. 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 Paramedics's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand has 4,850 jobs in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC, a gap of 4,670 from Paramedics. Its median is $40,240 per year, or $9,220 below Paramedics. Its location quotient is 1.66.
2. Retail Salespersons has 4,000 jobs in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC, a gap of 3,820 from Paramedics. Its median is $30,520 per year, or $18,940 below Paramedics. Its location quotient is 1.04.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC role table, at $95,640 per year. Paramedics has $49,460 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $45,220 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 $95,640 per year in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC, or $46,180 above Paramedics. BLS lists 1,750 jobs, compared with 180 for Paramedics. Its location quotient is 0.5.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $80,060 per year in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC, or $30,600 above Paramedics. BLS lists 3,020 jobs, compared with 180 for Paramedics. Its location quotient is 0.9.
3. Sales Representatives, Wholesale and Manufacturing, Except Technical and Scientific Products has a median of $67,150 per year in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC, or $17,690 above Paramedics. BLS lists 1,730 jobs, compared with 180 for Paramedics. Its location quotient is 1.41.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC
Upholsterers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC role table, at 111.23. Paramedics has 1.77. 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 Paramedics with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Upholsterers has a location quotient of 111.23 in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC, a gap of 109.46 from Paramedics. BLS lists 2,220 jobs and a median of $59,700 per year, or $10,240 above Paramedics.
2. Sewing Machine Operators has a location quotient of 17.88 in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC, a gap of 16.11 from Paramedics. BLS lists 1,860 jobs and a median of $46,540 per year, or $2,920 below Paramedics.
3. Production Workers, All Other has a location quotient of 5.62 in Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC, a gap of 3.85 from Paramedics. BLS lists 1,400 jobs and a median of $38,720 per year, or $10,740 below Paramedics.
Price-level view
What $49,460 may mean after the Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC is 88.5. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 11.5% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $49,460 Paramedics median by 88.5 divided by 100. The result is $55,896 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 59.6. Goods are 96.6. Utilities are 87.8. Other services are 98.2. 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 Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC row
The employment RSE for this Paramedics row is 2.7%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. 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 $51,340 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 Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Paramedics. It uses a Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC 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 $49,460 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 Paramedics row for Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC 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 1.77 is not a growth score. Rank 217 of 266 is not a place score. The 88.5 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 29-2043 in BLS area 25860. 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 180 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.
