WageScope divides the published Physical Therapists 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 29-1123 and BLS area 32900.

Merced, CA was 22.6% above the U.S. median for Physical Therapists. It ranked 12 of 389 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Physical Therapists median says in Merced, CA
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Physical Therapists median in Merced, CA at $126,000 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 29-1123 and BLS area 32900.
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 $132,390 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Merced, CA's Physical Therapists median is 22.6% above the U.S. Physical Therapists median of $102,760 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 29-1123 and area 32900. SOC 29-1123 names Physical Therapists. Area 32900 names Merced, CA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 29-1123/32900 row reports 60 wage and salary jobs, 0.77 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.45 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 29-1123/32900, the annual median is $126,000 per year, while the matching mean is $132,390 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 32900 facts behind this Physical Therapists page
Area 32900 reports 79,510 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $61,520. Its annual median is $47,220. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 29-1123 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Merced, CA runs from $34,320 at the 10th percentile to $106,690 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,870. The median is $47,220. The 75th percentile is $71,210. This is a place check, not a pay range for Physical Therapists.
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 32900. They do not show related skills or a path into Physical Therapists.
1. Area 32900, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 4,990 jobs, $34,320 annual median, 62.81 jobs per 1,000, and 2.27 location quotient.
2. Area 32900, SOC 45-2092, Farmworkers and Laborers, Crop, Nursery, and Greenhouse: 3,820 jobs, $36,350 annual median, 48.04 jobs per 1,000, and 28.13 location quotient.
3. Area 32900, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 2,500 jobs, $38,200 annual median, 31.42 jobs per 1,000, and 1.27 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Merced, CA wage ladder for Physical Therapists
The 10th percentile is $89,730 per year. The 25th percentile is $100,080 per year. The median is $126,000 per year. The 75th percentile is $156,880 per year. The 90th percentile is $203,820 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 $100,080 per year to $156,880 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $114,090. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Merced, CA has a annual median of $126,000 per year. California has $124,190 per year. The U.S. row has $102,760 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Merced, CA is 1.5% above California on the same published median. Merced, CA is 22.6% 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.
Merced, CA ranks 12 of 389 among metro areas with a published annual median for Physical Therapists. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 12 of 389 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.
9. Hanford-Corcoran, CA has a Physical Therapists median of $127,460 per year, 40 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.42.
10. Salinas, CA has a Physical Therapists median of $127,120 per year, 190 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.6.
11. Modesto, CA has a Physical Therapists median of $126,600 per year, 400 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.19.
13. Decatur, IL has a Physical Therapists median of $125,600 per year, 40 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.51.
Pay leaders
Where Physical Therapists medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 29-1123, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has the highest published median in this set, at $141,980 per year. Merced, CA sits at $126,000 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 Therapists 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. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a Physical Therapists median of $141,980 per year, or $15,980 above Merced, CA. BLS lists 3,140 jobs there, compared with 60 in Merced, CA. The location quotient is 0.77.
2. Vallejo, CA has a Physical Therapists median of $141,530 per year, or $15,530 above Merced, CA. BLS lists 300 jobs there, compared with 60 in Merced, CA. The location quotient is 1.23.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Physical Therapists jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Physical Therapists in this same-source set, at 21,240 jobs. Merced, CA 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 21,240 estimated Physical Therapists jobs, a gap of 21,180 jobs from Merced, CA. Its median is $107,650 per year, or $18,350 below Merced, CA. Its location quotient is 1.3.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 9,750 estimated Physical Therapists jobs, a gap of 9,690 jobs from Merced, CA. Its median is $108,170 per year, or $17,830 below Merced, CA. Its location quotient is 0.9.
Local-share leaders
Where Physical Therapists takes the largest share of local jobs
Homosassa Springs, FL has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 2.75. Merced, CA has 0.45. 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 Therapists 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 2.75, a gap of 2.30 from Merced, CA. BLS lists 170 Physical Therapists jobs and a median of $103,510 per year, or $22,490 below Merced, CA.
2. Bay City, MI has a location quotient of 2.11, a gap of 1.66 from Merced, CA. BLS lists 120 Physical Therapists jobs and a median of $93,450 per year, or $32,550 below Merced, CA.
3. Victoria, TX has a location quotient of 2.07, a gap of 1.62 from Merced, CA. BLS lists 140 Physical Therapists jobs and a median of $102,520 per year, or $23,480 below Merced, CA.
Job scale and share
How common Physical Therapists is in Merced, CA
BLS lists 60 Physical Therapists jobs in Merced, CA. It also lists 0.77 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 0.45. A value of 1 means Physical Therapists 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 Therapists beside other roles in Merced, CA
The all-occupations median in Merced, CA is $47,220 per year. The Physical Therapists median is $126,000 per year. Physical Therapists is 166.8% 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 Merced, CA. 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 Therapists. 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. Registered Nurses, SOC 29-1141, has a Merced, CA median of $131,620 per year. BLS lists 1,050 jobs and a location quotient of 0.61.
2. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education, SOC 25-2021, has a Merced, CA median of $100,120 per year. BLS lists 1,560 jobs and a location quotient of 2.19.
3. Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education, SOC 25-2031, has a Merced, CA median of $99,600 per year. BLS lists 1,020 jobs and a location quotient of 1.87.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Merced, CA
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Merced, CA table, at 4,990 jobs. Physical Therapists 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 79,510. 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 Therapists's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 4,990 jobs in Merced, CA, a gap of 4,930 from Physical Therapists. Its median is $34,320 per year, or $91,680 below Physical Therapists. Its location quotient is 2.27.
2. Farmworkers and Laborers, Crop, Nursery, and Greenhouse has 3,820 jobs in Merced, CA, a gap of 3,760 from Physical Therapists. Its median is $36,350 per year, or $89,650 below Physical Therapists. Its location quotient is 28.13.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Merced, CA
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Merced, CA role table, at $131,620 per year. Physical Therapists has $126,000 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,220 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. Registered Nurses has a median of $131,620 per year in Merced, CA, or $5,620 above Physical Therapists. BLS lists 1,050 jobs, compared with 60 for Physical Therapists. Its location quotient is 0.61.
2. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education has a median of $100,120 per year in Merced, CA, or $25,880 below Physical Therapists. BLS lists 1,560 jobs, compared with 60 for Physical Therapists. Its location quotient is 2.19.
3. Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education has a median of $99,600 per year in Merced, CA, or $26,400 below Physical Therapists. BLS lists 1,020 jobs, compared with 60 for Physical Therapists. Its location quotient is 1.87.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Merced, CA
Farmworkers and Laborers, Crop, Nursery, and Greenhouse has the highest location quotient in the bounded Merced, CA role table, at 28.13. Physical Therapists has 0.45. 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 Therapists with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Farmworkers and Laborers, Crop, Nursery, and Greenhouse has a location quotient of 28.13 in Merced, CA, a gap of 27.68 from Physical Therapists. BLS lists 3,820 jobs and a median of $36,350 per year, or $89,650 below Physical Therapists.
2. Substitute Teachers, Short-Term has a location quotient of 5.42 in Merced, CA, a gap of 4.97 from Physical Therapists. BLS lists 1,450 jobs and a median of $60,770 per year, or $65,230 below Physical Therapists.
Price-level view
What $126,000 may mean after the Merced, CA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Merced, CA is 98.3. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 1.7% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $126,000 Physical Therapists median by 98.3 divided by 100. The result is $128,212 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 78.6. Goods are 105.2. Utilities are 158.3. Other services are 100.3. 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 Therapists row is 7.1%. The mean-wage RSE is 2.6%. 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 $132,390 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 Therapists. It uses a Merced, CA 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 $126,000 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 Therapists row for Merced, CA 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 0.45 is not a growth score. Rank 12 of 389 is not a place score. The 98.3 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 29-1123 in BLS area 32900. 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 60 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.
