Paramedics pay in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area: common questions
What is the median wage for Paramedics in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area?
The May 2025 BLS OEWS release published a median of $56,130 per year for Paramedics in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. This describes an occupation-area estimate, not a promised offer or an individual's pay.

Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area was 7.4% below the U.S. median for Paramedics. It ranked 47 of 129 nonmetro 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 Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Paramedics median in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area at $56,130 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 2900003.
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 $57,450 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area's Paramedics median is 7.4% 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 2900003. SOC 29-2043 names Paramedics. Area 2900003 names Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 29-2043/2900003 row reports 180 wage and salary jobs, 1.08 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.66 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 29-2043/2900003, the annual median is $56,130 per year, while the matching mean is $57,450 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
29-2043/2900003 10th percentile: $46,350 per year.
29-2043/2900003 25th percentile: $49,140 per year.
29-2043/2900003 median: $56,130 per year.
29-2043/2900003 75th percentile: $69,620 per year.
29-2043/2900003 90th percentile: $75,610 per year.
BLS area 2900003 facts behind this Paramedics page
Area 2900003 reports 164,560 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $49,820. Its annual median is $39,990. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 29-2043 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area runs from $28,600 at the 10th percentile to $78,850 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $31,760. The median is $39,990. The 75th percentile is $56,310. 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 2900003. They do not show related skills or a path into Paramedics.
1. Area 2900003, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 12,040 jobs, $30,840 annual median, 73.19 jobs per 1,000, and 2.64 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area wage ladder for Paramedics
The 10th percentile is $46,350 per year. The 25th percentile is $49,140 per year. The median is $56,130 per year. The 75th percentile is $69,620 per year. The 90th percentile is $75,610 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 $49,140 per year to $69,620 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $29,260. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $56,130 per year. Missouri has $59,180 per year. The U.S. row has $60,600 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area is 5.2% below Missouri on the same published median. Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area is 7.4% 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 Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area sits for Paramedics
Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area ranks 47 of 129 among nonmetro 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 47 of 129 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.
44. Central Indiana nonmetropolitan area has a Paramedics median of $58,330 per year, 340 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 3.23.
45. Southside Virginia nonmetropolitan area has a Paramedics median of $58,230 per year, 100 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.56.
46. Southeast Iowa nonmetropolitan area has a Paramedics median of $57,820 per year, 170 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.32.
48. Northwest Iowa nonmetropolitan area has a Paramedics median of $56,030 per year, 120 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.32.
Pay leaders
Where Paramedics medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 29-2043, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Western Washington nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $81,520 per year. Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area sits at $56,130 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. Western Washington nonmetropolitan area has a Paramedics median of $81,520 per year, or $25,390 above Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 270 jobs there, compared with 180 in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 3.22.
2. Eastern Washington nonmetropolitan area has a Paramedics median of $79,770 per year, or $23,640 above Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 170 jobs there, compared with 180 in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 2.45.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Paramedics jobs
Western North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Paramedics in this same-source set, at 680 jobs. Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area 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. Western North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has 680 estimated Paramedics jobs, a gap of 500 jobs from Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $48,110 per year, or $8,020 below Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 4.18.
2. Eastern North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has 560 estimated Paramedics jobs, a gap of 380 jobs from Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $49,980 per year, or $6,150 below Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 3.27.
Local-share leaders
Where Paramedics takes the largest share of local jobs
Western North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 4.18. Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area has 1.66. 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. Western North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 4.18, a gap of 2.52 from Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 680 Paramedics jobs and a median of $48,110 per year, or $8,020 below Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area.
2. Central North Carolina nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 3.32, a gap of 1.66 from Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 510 Paramedics jobs and a median of $48,090 per year, or $8,040 below Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area.
Job scale and share
How common Paramedics is in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists 180 Paramedics jobs in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. It also lists 1.08 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 1.66. 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 Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area
The all-occupations median in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area is $39,990 per year. The Paramedics median is $56,130 per year. Paramedics is 40.4% 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 Southeast Missouri 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 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. Licensed Practical and Licensed Vocational Nurses, SOC 29-2061, has a Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area median of $59,050 per year. BLS lists 1,690 jobs and a location quotient of 2.46.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Production and Operating Workers, SOC 51-1011, has a Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area median of $60,110 per year. BLS lists 1,230 jobs and a location quotient of 1.72.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area table, at 12,040 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 164,560. 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. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 12,040 jobs in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 11,860 from Paramedics. Its median is $30,840 per year, or $25,290 below Paramedics. Its location quotient is 2.64.
2. General and Operations Managers has 5,740 jobs in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 5,560 from Paramedics. Its median is $64,670 per year, or $8,540 above Paramedics. Its location quotient is 1.55.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area role table, at $77,220 per year. Paramedics has $56,130 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $39,990 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. Registered Nurses has a median of $77,220 per year in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area, or $21,090 above Paramedics. BLS lists 3,650 jobs, compared with 180 for Paramedics. Its location quotient is 1.02.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $64,670 per year in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area, or $8,540 above Paramedics. BLS lists 5,740 jobs, compared with 180 for Paramedics. Its location quotient is 1.55.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area
Cooks, Fast Food has the highest location quotient in the bounded Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area role table, at 5.62. Paramedics has 1.66. 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. Cooks, Fast Food has a location quotient of 5.62 in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 3.96 from Paramedics. BLS lists 3,820 jobs and a median of $28,600 per year, or $27,530 below Paramedics.
2. Correctional Officers and Jailers has a location quotient of 3.64 in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 1.98 from Paramedics. BLS lists 1,460 jobs and a median of $42,620 per year, or $13,510 below Paramedics.
3. Cooks, Institution and Cafeteria has a location quotient of 2.82 in Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 1.16 from Paramedics. BLS lists 1,320 jobs and a median of $29,360 per year, or $26,770 below Paramedics.
Price-level view
What $56,130 may mean after the Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $56,130 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 Paramedics 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.
How much care to use with the Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Paramedics row is 29.6%. The mean-wage RSE is 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 180 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $57,450 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.
Use Southeast Missouri nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Paramedics. It uses a Southeast Missouri 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 $56,130 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 Southeast Missouri 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 180 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.66 is not a growth score. Rank 47 of 129 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 29-2043 in BLS area 2900003. 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.
