WageScope divides the published Physical Therapist Aides 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 31-2022 and BLS area 29.

Physical Therapist Aides pay in Missouri: common questions
What is the median wage for Physical Therapist Aides in Missouri?

What the Physical Therapist Aides median says in Missouri
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Physical Therapist Aides median in Missouri at $29,250 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 31-2022 and BLS area 29.
BLS lists 750 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 $32,750 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Missouri's Physical Therapist Aides median is 17.0% below the U.S. Physical Therapist Aides median of $35,240 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 31-2022 and area 29. SOC 31-2022 names Physical Therapist Aides. Area 29 names Missouri. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 31-2022/29 row reports 750 wage and salary jobs, 0.26 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.83 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 31-2022/29, the annual median is $29,250 per year, while the matching mean is $32,750 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 29 facts behind this Physical Therapist Aides page
Area 29 reports 2,936,050 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $62,160. Its annual median is $47,800. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 31-2022 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Missouri runs from $29,780 at the 10th percentile to $104,320 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,160. The median is $47,800. The 75th percentile is $74,260. This is a place check, not a pay range for Physical Therapist Aides.
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 29. They do not show related skills or a path into Physical Therapist Aides.
1. Area 29, SOC 11-1021, General and Operations Managers: 109,020 jobs, $79,300 annual median, 37.13 jobs per 1,000, and 1.65 location quotient.
2. Area 29, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 94,810 jobs, $33,080 annual median, 32.29 jobs per 1,000, and 1.17 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Missouri wage ladder for Physical Therapist Aides
The 10th percentile is $28,600 per year. The 25th percentile is $28,600 per year. The median is $29,250 per year. The 75th percentile is $35,350 per year. The 90th percentile is $39,140 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 $28,600 per year to $35,350 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $10,540. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Missouri has a annual median of $29,250 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $35,240 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Missouri. Missouri is 17.0% 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.
Missouri ranks 41 of 50 among states and territories with a published annual median for Physical Therapist Aides. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 41 of 50 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.
38. Tennessee has a Physical Therapist Aides median of $30,320 per year, 710 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.7.
39. Arkansas has a Physical Therapist Aides median of $29,450 per year, 160 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.4.
40. Michigan has a Physical Therapist Aides median of $29,350 per year, 1,810 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.33.
42. Utah has a Physical Therapist Aides median of $29,150 per year, 1,130 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.11.
Pay leaders
Where Physical Therapist Aides medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 31-2022, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Alaska has the highest published median in this set, at $55,760 per year. Missouri sits at $29,250 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Physical Therapist Aides 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. Alaska has a Physical Therapist Aides median of $55,760 per year, or $26,510 above Missouri. BLS lists 110 jobs there, compared with 750 in Missouri. The location quotient is 1.05.
2. Minnesota has a Physical Therapist Aides median of $42,330 per year, or $13,080 above Missouri. BLS lists 150 jobs there, compared with 750 in Missouri. The location quotient is 0.16.
3. Colorado has a Physical Therapist Aides median of $41,970 per year, or $12,720 above Missouri. BLS lists 360 jobs there, compared with 750 in Missouri. The location quotient is 0.4.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Physical Therapist Aides jobs
California has the largest published state job estimate for Physical Therapist Aides in this same-source set, at 7,330 jobs. Missouri has 750. 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 7,330 estimated Physical Therapist Aides jobs, a gap of 6,580 jobs from Missouri. Its median is $38,330 per year, or $9,080 above Missouri. Its location quotient is 1.3.
2. Texas has 5,710 estimated Physical Therapist Aides jobs, a gap of 4,960 jobs from Missouri. Its median is $31,590 per year, or $2,340 above Missouri. Its location quotient is 1.31.
3. New York has 4,950 estimated Physical Therapist Aides jobs, a gap of 4,200 jobs from Missouri. Its median is $35,380 per year, or $6,130 above Missouri. Its location quotient is 1.65.
Local-share leaders
Where Physical Therapist Aides takes the largest share of local jobs
Wyoming has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 2.78. Missouri has 0.83. 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 Therapist Aides 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. Wyoming has a location quotient of 2.78, a gap of 1.95 from Missouri. BLS lists 240 Physical Therapist Aides jobs and a median of $30,470 per year, or $1,220 above Missouri.
2. Louisiana has a location quotient of 2.31, a gap of 1.48 from Missouri. BLS lists 1,380 Physical Therapist Aides jobs and a median of $22,460 per year, or $6,790 below Missouri.
3. Nebraska has a location quotient of 2.13, a gap of 1.30 from Missouri. BLS lists 670 Physical Therapist Aides jobs and a median of $28,080 per year, or $1,170 below Missouri.
Job scale and share
How common Physical Therapist Aides is in Missouri
BLS lists 750 Physical Therapist Aides jobs in Missouri. It also lists 0.26 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 0.83. A value of 1 means Physical Therapist Aides 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.
Physical Therapist Aides beside other roles in Missouri
The all-occupations median in Missouri is $47,800 per year. The Physical Therapist Aides median is $29,250 per year. Physical Therapist Aides is 38.8% below 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 Missouri. 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 Therapist Aides. 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. Waiters and Waitresses, SOC 35-3031, has a Missouri median of $29,400 per year. BLS lists 41,640 jobs and a location quotient of 0.97.
2. Cooks, Fast Food, SOC 35-2011, has a Missouri median of $29,890 per year. BLS lists 55,780 jobs and a location quotient of 4.61.
3. Fast Food and Counter Workers, SOC 35-3023, has a Missouri median of $30,390 per year. BLS lists 29,360 jobs and a location quotient of 0.4.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Missouri
General and Operations Managers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Missouri table, at 109,020 jobs. Physical Therapist Aides has 750 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 2,936,050. 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 Therapist Aides's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. General and Operations Managers has 109,020 jobs in Missouri, a gap of 108,270 from Physical Therapist Aides. Its median is $79,300 per year, or $50,050 above Physical Therapist Aides. Its location quotient is 1.65.
2. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 94,810 jobs in Missouri, a gap of 94,060 from Physical Therapist Aides. Its median is $33,080 per year, or $3,830 above Physical Therapist Aides. Its location quotient is 1.17.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Missouri
Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Missouri role table, at $126,120 per year. Physical Therapist Aides has $29,250 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,800 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 $126,120 per year in Missouri, or $96,870 above Physical Therapist Aides. BLS lists 20,020 jobs, compared with 750 for Physical Therapist Aides. Its location quotient is 0.63.
2. Project Management Specialists has a median of $94,660 per year in Missouri, or $65,410 above Physical Therapist Aides. BLS lists 21,460 jobs, compared with 750 for Physical Therapist Aides. Its location quotient is 1.07.
3. Registered Nurses has a median of $81,780 per year in Missouri, or $52,530 above Physical Therapist Aides. BLS lists 76,310 jobs, compared with 750 for Physical Therapist Aides. Its location quotient is 1.2.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Missouri
Cooks, Fast Food has the highest location quotient in the bounded Missouri role table, at 4.61. Physical Therapist Aides has 0.83. 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 Therapist Aides 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 4.61 in Missouri, a gap of 3.78 from Physical Therapist Aides. BLS lists 55,780 jobs and a median of $29,890 per year, or $640 above Physical Therapist Aides.
2. General and Operations Managers has a location quotient of 1.65 in Missouri, a gap of 0.82 from Physical Therapist Aides. BLS lists 109,020 jobs and a median of $79,300 per year, or $50,050 above Physical Therapist Aides.
3. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education has a location quotient of 1.27 in Missouri, a gap of 0.44 from Physical Therapist Aides. BLS lists 33,180 jobs and a median of $50,910 per year, or $21,660 above Physical Therapist Aides.
Price-level view
What $29,250 may mean after the Missouri price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Missouri is 90.8. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 9.2% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $29,250 Physical Therapist Aides median by 90.8 divided by 100. The result is $32,208 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 69.9. Goods are 96.3. Utilities are 79.4. Other services are 95.2. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Physical Therapist Aides row is 25%. The mean-wage RSE is 4.1%. 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 750 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $32,750 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 Therapist Aides. It uses a Missouri 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 $29,250 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.
What the Physical Therapist Aides row for Missouri 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 750 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.83 is not a growth score. Rank 41 of 50 is not a place score. The 90.8 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 31-2022 in BLS area 29. 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 750 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.
