WageScope divides the published Paramedics 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 29-2043 and BLS area 34060.

Morgantown, WV was 18.5% below the U.S. median for Paramedics. It ranked 219 of 266 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 Paramedics median in Morgantown, WV at $49,370 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 34060.
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 $49,450 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Morgantown, WV's Paramedics median is 18.5% 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 34060. SOC 29-2043 names Paramedics. Area 34060 names Morgantown, WV. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 29-2043/34060 row reports 60 wage and salary jobs, 0.87 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.35 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 29-2043/34060, the annual median is $49,370 per year, while the matching mean is $49,450 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 34060 reports 67,370 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $61,310. Its annual median is $47,350. The employment RSE is 0.1%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.6%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 29-2043 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Morgantown, WV runs from $27,180 at the 10th percentile to $105,170 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $34,230. The median is $47,350. The 75th percentile is $74,660. 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 34060. They do not show related skills or a path into Paramedics.
1. Area 34060, SOC 29-1141, Registered Nurses: 4,510 jobs, $80,130 annual median, 67 jobs per 1,000, and 3.08 location quotient.
2. Area 34060, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 2,090 jobs, $28,570 annual median, 31.01 jobs per 1,000, and 1.24 location quotient.
3. Area 34060, SOC 25-1071, Health Specialties Teachers, Postsecondary: 1,400 jobs, $60,300 annual median, 20.85 jobs per 1,000, and 14.65 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Morgantown, WV wage ladder for Paramedics
The 10th percentile is $42,620 per year. The 25th percentile is $43,060 per year. The median is $49,370 per year. The 75th percentile is $56,140 per year. The 90th percentile is $62,750 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 $43,060 per year to $56,140 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $20,130. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Morgantown, WV with its state and the U.S.
Morgantown, WV has a annual median of $49,370 per year. West Virginia has $48,460 per year. The U.S. row has $60,600 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Morgantown, WV is 1.9% above West Virginia on the same published median. Morgantown, WV is 18.5% 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.
Morgantown, WV ranks 219 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 219 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.
216. Joplin, MO-KS has a Paramedics median of $49,480 per year, 100 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.86.
217. Hickory-Lenoir-Morganton, NC has a Paramedics median of $49,460 per year, 180 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.77.
218. Peoria, IL has a Paramedics median of $49,440 per year, 210 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.91.
220. Cincinnati, OH-KY-IN has a Paramedics median of $49,320 per year, 650 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.91.
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. Morgantown, WV sits at $49,370 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 $73,940 above Morgantown, WV. BLS lists 750 jobs there, compared with 60 in Morgantown, WV. The location quotient is 0.56.
2. Olympia-Lacey-Tumwater, WA has a Paramedics median of $120,260 per year, or $70,890 above Morgantown, WV. BLS lists 100 jobs there, compared with 60 in Morgantown, WV. 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. Morgantown, WV 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. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 3,850 estimated Paramedics jobs, a gap of 3,790 jobs from Morgantown, WV. Its median is $79,550 per year, or $30,180 above Morgantown, WV. Its location quotient is 0.63.
2. Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN has 2,560 estimated Paramedics jobs, a gap of 2,500 jobs from Morgantown, WV. Its median is $77,670 per year, or $28,300 above Morgantown, WV. 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. Morgantown, WV has 1.35. 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 3.44 from Morgantown, WV. BLS lists 110 Paramedics jobs and a median of $47,390 per year, or $1,980 below Morgantown, WV.
2. Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ has a location quotient of 4.27, a gap of 2.92 from Morgantown, WV. BLS lists 160 Paramedics jobs and a median of $63,660 per year, or $14,290 above Morgantown, WV.
3. Aguadilla, PR has a location quotient of 3.85, a gap of 2.50 from Morgantown, WV. BLS lists 120 Paramedics jobs and a median of $26,880 per year, or $22,490 below Morgantown, WV.
Job scale and share
How common Paramedics is in Morgantown, WV
BLS lists 60 Paramedics jobs in Morgantown, WV. It also lists 0.87 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 1.35. 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.
The all-occupations median in Morgantown, WV is $47,350 per year. The Paramedics median is $49,370 per year. Paramedics is 4.3% 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 Morgantown, WV. 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. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers, SOC 53-3032, has a Morgantown, WV median of $48,560 per year. BLS lists 700 jobs and a location quotient of 0.79.
2. Licensed Practical and Licensed Vocational Nurses, SOC 29-2061, has a Morgantown, WV median of $50,400 per year. BLS lists 630 jobs and a location quotient of 2.25.
3. Operating Engineers and Other Construction Equipment Operators, SOC 47-2073, has a Morgantown, WV median of $52,970 per year. BLS lists 530 jobs and a location quotient of 2.54.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Morgantown, WV
Registered Nurses is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Morgantown, WV table, at 4,510 jobs. Paramedics 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 67,370. 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. Registered Nurses has 4,510 jobs in Morgantown, WV, a gap of 4,450 from Paramedics. Its median is $80,130 per year, or $30,760 above Paramedics. Its location quotient is 3.08.
2. Retail Salespersons has 2,090 jobs in Morgantown, WV, a gap of 2,030 from Paramedics. Its median is $28,570 per year, or $20,800 below Paramedics. Its location quotient is 1.24.
3. Health Specialties Teachers, Postsecondary has 1,400 jobs in Morgantown, WV, a gap of 1,340 from Paramedics. Its median is $60,300 per year, or $10,930 above Paramedics. Its location quotient is 14.65.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Morgantown, WV
Education Administrators, Postsecondary has the highest published median in the bounded Morgantown, WV role table, at $102,600 per year. Paramedics has $49,370 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,350 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. Education Administrators, Postsecondary has a median of $102,600 per year in Morgantown, WV, or $53,230 above Paramedics. BLS lists 550 jobs, compared with 60 for Paramedics. Its location quotient is 7.02.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $89,440 per year in Morgantown, WV, or $40,070 above Paramedics. BLS lists 1,280 jobs, compared with 60 for Paramedics. Its location quotient is 0.84.
3. Registered Nurses has a median of $80,130 per year in Morgantown, WV, or $30,760 above Paramedics. BLS lists 4,510 jobs, compared with 60 for Paramedics. Its location quotient is 3.08.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Morgantown, WV
Health Specialties Teachers, Postsecondary has the highest location quotient in the bounded Morgantown, WV role table, at 14.65. Paramedics has 1.35. 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. Health Specialties Teachers, Postsecondary has a location quotient of 14.65 in Morgantown, WV, a gap of 13.30 from Paramedics. BLS lists 1,400 jobs and a median of $60,300 per year, or $10,930 above Paramedics.
2. Education Administrators, Postsecondary has a location quotient of 7.02 in Morgantown, WV, a gap of 5.67 from Paramedics. BLS lists 550 jobs and a median of $102,600 per year, or $53,230 above Paramedics.
3. Registered Nurses has a location quotient of 3.08 in Morgantown, WV, a gap of 1.73 from Paramedics. BLS lists 4,510 jobs and a median of $80,130 per year, or $30,760 above Paramedics.
Price-level view
What $49,370 may mean after the Morgantown, WV price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Morgantown, WV is 93.3. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 6.7% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $49,370 Paramedics median by 93.3 divided by 100. The result is $52,902 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 69.1. Goods are 96.3. Utilities are 92.5. Other services are 99.8. 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 Paramedics row is 8.5%. The mean-wage RSE is 3.2%. 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 60 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $49,450 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 Paramedics. It uses a Morgantown, WV 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 $49,370 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 Morgantown, WV 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 1.35 is not a growth score. Rank 219 of 266 is not a place score. The 93.3 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 34060. 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.
