WageScope divides the published Pipelayers 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 47-2151 and BLS area 31340.

Lynchburg, VA was 9.0% below the U.S. median for Pipelayers. It ranked 100 of 131 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 Pipelayers median in Lynchburg, VA at $44,580 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 47-2151 and BLS area 31340.
BLS lists 30 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 $47,260 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Lynchburg, VA's Pipelayers median is 9.0% below the U.S. Pipelayers median of $49,000 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 47-2151 and area 31340. SOC 47-2151 names Pipelayers. Area 31340 names Lynchburg, VA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 47-2151/31340 row reports 30 wage and salary jobs, 0.34 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.62 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 47-2151/31340, the annual median is $44,580 per year, while the matching mean is $47,260 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
Area 31340 reports 97,190 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $57,880. Its annual median is $46,190. The employment RSE is 0.1%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.4%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 47-2151 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Lynchburg, VA runs from $28,130 at the 10th percentile to $98,320 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $34,160. The median is $46,190. The 75th percentile is $66,840. This is a place check, not a pay range for Pipelayers.
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 31340. They do not show related skills or a path into Pipelayers.
1. Area 31340, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 3,280 jobs, $28,220 annual median, 33.76 jobs per 1,000, and 1.36 location quotient.
2. Area 31340, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 2,950 jobs, $30,570 annual median, 30.37 jobs per 1,000, and 1.21 location quotient.
3. Area 31340, SOC 41-2011, Cashiers: 2,810 jobs, $28,390 annual median, 28.93 jobs per 1,000, and 1.46 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Lynchburg, VA wage ladder for Pipelayers
The 10th percentile is $37,390 per year. The 25th percentile is $39,460 per year. The median is $44,580 per year. The 75th percentile is $49,750 per year. The 90th percentile is $59,900 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 $39,460 per year to $49,750 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $22,510. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Lynchburg, VA has a annual median of $44,580 per year. Virginia has $48,700 per year. The U.S. row has $49,000 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Lynchburg, VA is 8.5% below Virginia on the same published median. Lynchburg, VA is 9.0% 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.
Lynchburg, VA ranks 100 of 131 among metro areas with a published annual median for Pipelayers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 100 of 131 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.
97. Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands, TX has a Pipelayers median of $45,150 per year, 1,300 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.86.
98. Albuquerque, NM has a Pipelayers median of $45,110 per year, 80 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.95.
99. Pensacola-Ferry Pass-Brent, FL has a Pipelayers median of $44,920 per year, 90 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.29.
101. Augusta-Richmond County, GA-SC has a Pipelayers median of $44,560 per year, 60 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.18.
Pay leaders
Where Pipelayers medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 47-2151, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI has the highest published median in this set, at $93,550 per year. Lynchburg, VA sits at $44,580 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Pipelayers 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. Milwaukee-Waukesha, WI has a Pipelayers median of $93,550 per year, or $48,970 above Lynchburg, VA. BLS lists 90 jobs there, compared with 30 in Lynchburg, VA. The location quotient is 0.52.
2. Green Bay, WI has a Pipelayers median of $91,520 per year, or $46,940 above Lynchburg, VA. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with 30 in Lynchburg, VA. The location quotient is 1.03.
3. South Bend-Mishawaka, IN-MI has a Pipelayers median of $90,880 per year, or $46,300 above Lynchburg, VA. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with 30 in Lynchburg, VA. The location quotient is 1.53.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Pipelayers jobs
Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands, TX has the largest published metro job estimate for Pipelayers in this same-source set, at 1,300 jobs. Lynchburg, VA has 30. 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. Houston-Pasadena-The Woodlands, TX has 1,300 estimated Pipelayers jobs, a gap of 1,270 jobs from Lynchburg, VA. Its median is $45,150 per year, or $570 above Lynchburg, VA. Its location quotient is 1.86.
2. Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX has 1,240 estimated Pipelayers jobs, a gap of 1,210 jobs from Lynchburg, VA. Its median is $46,680 per year, or $2,100 above Lynchburg, VA. Its location quotient is 1.44.
Local-share leaders
Where Pipelayers takes the largest share of local jobs
Jacksonville, NC has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 5.94. Lynchburg, VA has 1.62. 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 Pipelayers 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. Jacksonville, NC has a location quotient of 5.94, a gap of 4.32 from Lynchburg, VA. BLS lists 70 Pipelayers jobs and a median of $44,000 per year, or $580 below Lynchburg, VA.
2. Goldsboro, NC has a location quotient of 5.42, a gap of 3.80 from Lynchburg, VA. BLS lists 50 Pipelayers jobs and a median of $48,190 per year, or $3,610 above Lynchburg, VA.
3. Wildwood-The Villages, FL has a location quotient of 5.22, a gap of 3.60 from Lynchburg, VA. BLS lists 50 Pipelayers jobs and a median of $40,570 per year, or $4,010 below Lynchburg, VA.
Job scale and share
How common Pipelayers is in Lynchburg, VA
BLS lists 30 Pipelayers jobs in Lynchburg, VA. It also lists 0.34 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 1.62. A value of 1 means Pipelayers 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 Lynchburg, VA is $46,190 per year. The Pipelayers median is $44,580 per year. Pipelayers is 3.5% 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 Lynchburg, VA. 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 Pipelayers. 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. First-Line Supervisors of Retail Sales Workers, SOC 41-1011, has a Lynchburg, VA median of $45,290 per year. BLS lists 960 jobs and a location quotient of 1.37.
2. Nursing Assistants, SOC 31-1131, has a Lynchburg, VA median of $43,660 per year. BLS lists 1,300 jobs and a location quotient of 1.43.
3. Medical Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, SOC 43-6013, has a Lynchburg, VA median of $43,030 per year. BLS lists 700 jobs and a location quotient of 1.16.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Lynchburg, VA
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Lynchburg, VA table, at 3,280 jobs. Pipelayers has 30 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 97,190. 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 Pipelayers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 3,280 jobs in Lynchburg, VA, a gap of 3,250 from Pipelayers. Its median is $28,220 per year, or $16,360 below Pipelayers. Its location quotient is 1.36.
2. Retail Salespersons has 2,950 jobs in Lynchburg, VA, a gap of 2,920 from Pipelayers. Its median is $30,570 per year, or $14,010 below Pipelayers. Its location quotient is 1.21.
3. Cashiers has 2,810 jobs in Lynchburg, VA, a gap of 2,780 from Pipelayers. Its median is $28,390 per year, or $16,190 below Pipelayers. Its location quotient is 1.46.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Lynchburg, VA
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Lynchburg, VA role table, at $95,040 per year. Pipelayers has $44,580 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $46,190 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. General and Operations Managers has a median of $95,040 per year in Lynchburg, VA, or $50,460 above Pipelayers. BLS lists 1,930 jobs, compared with 30 for Pipelayers. Its location quotient is 0.88.
2. Project Management Specialists has a median of $94,690 per year in Lynchburg, VA, or $50,110 above Pipelayers. BLS lists 740 jobs, compared with 30 for Pipelayers. Its location quotient is 1.1.
3. Registered Nurses has a median of $80,450 per year in Lynchburg, VA, or $35,870 above Pipelayers. BLS lists 2,200 jobs, compared with 30 for Pipelayers. Its location quotient is 1.04.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Lynchburg, VA
Substance Abuse, Behavioral Disorder, and Mental Health Counselors has the highest location quotient in the bounded Lynchburg, VA role table, at 2.55. Pipelayers has 1.62. 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 Pipelayers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Substance Abuse, Behavioral Disorder, and Mental Health Counselors has a location quotient of 2.55 in Lynchburg, VA, a gap of 0.93 from Pipelayers. BLS lists 780 jobs and a median of $60,220 per year, or $15,640 above Pipelayers.
2. Inspectors, Testers, Sorters, Samplers, and Weighers has a location quotient of 2 in Lynchburg, VA, a gap of 0.38 from Pipelayers. BLS lists 750 jobs and a median of $57,660 per year, or $13,080 above Pipelayers.
Price-level view
What $44,580 may mean after the Lynchburg, VA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Lynchburg, VA is 89.4. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 10.6% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $44,580 Pipelayers median by 89.4 divided by 100. The result is $49,886 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 63.9. Goods are 96.8. Utilities are 87.8. Other services are 98.6. 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 Pipelayers row is 28.6%. The mean-wage RSE is 3.1%. 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 30 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $47,260 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 Pipelayers. It uses a Lynchburg, VA 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 $44,580 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 Pipelayers row for Lynchburg, VA 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 30 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.62 is not a growth score. Rank 100 of 131 is not a place score. The 89.4 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 47-2151 in BLS area 31340. 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.
