What the Physical Scientists, All Other median says in Colorado
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Physical Scientists, All Other median in Colorado at $134,440 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 19-2099 and BLS area 08.
BLS lists 710 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 $147,190 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Colorado's Physical Scientists, All Other median is 9.7% above the U.S. Physical Scientists, All Other median of $122,570 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 19-2099 and area 08. SOC 19-2099 names Physical Scientists, All Other. Area 08 names Colorado. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 19-2099/08 row reports 710 wage and salary jobs, 0.25 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.72 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 19-2099/08, the annual median is $134,440 per year, while the matching mean is $147,190 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 08 facts behind this Physical Scientists, All Other page
Area 08 reports 2,873,900 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $77,190. Its annual median is $59,800. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 19-2099 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Colorado runs from $36,350 at the 10th percentile to $136,330 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $43,680. The median is $59,800. The 75th percentile is $93,220. This is a place check, not a pay range for Physical Scientists, All Other.
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 08. They do not show related skills or a path into Physical Scientists, All Other.
1. Area 08, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 82,010 jobs, $36,270 annual median, 28.54 jobs per 1,000, and 1.15 location quotient.
2. Area 08, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 76,660 jobs, $37,950 annual median, 26.67 jobs per 1,000, and 1.06 location quotient.
3. Area 08, SOC 53-7065, Stockers and Order Fillers: 55,520 jobs, $42,350 annual median, 19.32 jobs per 1,000, and 1.06 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Colorado wage ladder for Physical Scientists, All Other
The 10th percentile is $82,760 per year. The 25th percentile is $108,680 per year. The median is $134,440 per year. The 75th percentile is $169,170 per year. The 90th percentile is $225,810 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 $108,680 per year to $169,170 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $143,050. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Colorado has a annual median of $134,440 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $122,570 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Colorado. Colorado is 9.7% 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 Colorado sits for Physical Scientists, All Other
Colorado ranks 10 of 40 among states and territories with a published annual median for Physical Scientists, All Other. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 10 of 40 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.
7. Georgia has a Physical Scientists, All Other median of $137,680 per year, 1,020 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.46.
8. Alabama has a Physical Scientists, All Other median of $135,350 per year, 140 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.47.
9. Pennsylvania has a Physical Scientists, All Other median of $134,780 per year, 460 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.53.
11. Washington has a Physical Scientists, All Other median of $133,980 per year, 450 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.88.
Pay leaders
Where Physical Scientists, All Other medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 19-2099, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. District of Columbia has the highest published median in this set, at $156,730 per year. Colorado sits at $134,440 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Physical Scientists, All Other 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. District of Columbia has a Physical Scientists, All Other median of $156,730 per year, or $22,290 above Colorado. BLS lists 790 jobs there, compared with 710 in Colorado. The location quotient is 7.88.
2. Minnesota has a Physical Scientists, All Other median of $147,890 per year, or $13,450 above Colorado. BLS lists 540 jobs there, compared with 710 in Colorado. The location quotient is 1.28.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Physical Scientists, All Other jobs
California has the largest published state job estimate for Physical Scientists, All Other in this same-source set, at 2,320 jobs. Colorado has 710. 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. California has 2,320 estimated Physical Scientists, All Other jobs, a gap of 1,610 jobs from Colorado. Its median is $130,610 per year, or $3,830 below Colorado. Its location quotient is 0.89.
2. Texas has 2,310 estimated Physical Scientists, All Other jobs, a gap of 1,600 jobs from Colorado. Its median is $100,920 per year, or $33,520 below Colorado. Its location quotient is 1.15.
Local-share leaders
Where Physical Scientists, All Other takes the largest share of local jobs
District of Columbia has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 7.88. Colorado has 1.72. 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 Physical Scientists, All Other 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. District of Columbia has a location quotient of 7.88, a gap of 6.16 from Colorado. BLS lists 790 Physical Scientists, All Other jobs and a median of $156,730 per year, or $22,290 above Colorado.
2. Maryland has a location quotient of 4.56, a gap of 2.84 from Colorado. BLS lists 1,810 Physical Scientists, All Other jobs and a median of $141,290 per year, or $6,850 above Colorado.
3. Alaska has a location quotient of 2.96, a gap of 1.24 from Colorado. BLS lists 140 Physical Scientists, All Other jobs and a median of $120,240 per year, or $14,200 below Colorado.
Job scale and share
How common Physical Scientists, All Other is in Colorado
BLS lists 710 Physical Scientists, All Other jobs in Colorado. It also lists 0.25 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 1.72. A value of 1 means Physical Scientists, All Other 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.
Physical Scientists, All Other beside other roles in Colorado
The all-occupations median in Colorado is $59,800 per year. The Physical Scientists, All Other median is $134,440 per year. Physical Scientists, All Other is 124.8% 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 Colorado. 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 Physical Scientists, All Other. 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. General and Operations Managers, SOC 11-1021, has a Colorado median of $131,840 per year. BLS lists 41,870 jobs and a location quotient of 0.65.
2. Software Developers, SOC 15-1252, has a Colorado median of $138,390 per year. BLS lists 43,320 jobs and a location quotient of 1.39.
3. Project Management Specialists, SOC 13-1082, has a Colorado median of $110,050 per year. BLS lists 32,390 jobs and a location quotient of 1.64.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Colorado
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Colorado table, at 82,010 jobs. Physical Scientists, All Other has 710 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 2,873,900. 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 Physical Scientists, All Other's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 82,010 jobs in Colorado, a gap of 81,300 from Physical Scientists, All Other. Its median is $36,270 per year, or $98,170 below Physical Scientists, All Other. Its location quotient is 1.15.
2. Retail Salespersons has 76,660 jobs in Colorado, a gap of 75,950 from Physical Scientists, All Other. Its median is $37,950 per year, or $96,490 below Physical Scientists, All Other. Its location quotient is 1.06.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Colorado
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Colorado role table, at $138,390 per year. Physical Scientists, All Other has $134,440 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $59,800 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 $138,390 per year in Colorado, or $3,950 above Physical Scientists, All Other. BLS lists 43,320 jobs, compared with 710 for Physical Scientists, All Other. Its location quotient is 1.39.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $131,840 per year in Colorado, or $2,600 below Physical Scientists, All Other. BLS lists 41,870 jobs, compared with 710 for Physical Scientists, All Other. Its location quotient is 0.65.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Colorado
Business Operations Specialists, All Other has the highest location quotient in the bounded Colorado role table, at 2.27. Physical Scientists, All Other has 1.72. 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 Physical Scientists, All Other with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Business Operations Specialists, All Other has a location quotient of 2.27 in Colorado, a gap of 0.55 from Physical Scientists, All Other. BLS lists 45,670 jobs and a median of $92,520 per year, or $41,920 below Physical Scientists, All Other.
2. Market Research Analysts and Marketing Specialists has a location quotient of 1.68 in Colorado, a gap of 0.04 from Physical Scientists, All Other. BLS lists 27,880 jobs and a median of $93,050 per year, or $41,390 below Physical Scientists, All Other.
Price-level view
What $134,440 may mean after the Colorado price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Colorado is 103.1. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 3.1% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $134,440 Physical Scientists, All Other median by 103.1 divided by 100. The result is $130,458 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 127.4. Goods are 98.7. Utilities are 85.0. Other services are 99.6. 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 Physical Scientists, All Other row is 2.7%. The mean-wage RSE is 2.5%. 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 710 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $147,190 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 Physical Scientists, All Other. It uses a Colorado 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. Job cards can change without changing this guide. They do not count toward the 1,500-word content floor. A listing range does not replace the $134,440 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 Physical Scientists, All Other row for Colorado 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 710 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.72 is not a growth score. Rank 10 of 40 is not a place score. The 103.1 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 19-2099 in BLS area 08. 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 710 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.
