Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA was 11.9% below the U.S. median for Psychiatric Technicians. It ranked 139 of 227 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Psychiatric Technicians median says in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Psychiatric Technicians median in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA at $39,750 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 29-2053 and BLS area 19780.
BLS lists 300 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 $41,000 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA's Psychiatric Technicians median is 11.9% below the U.S. Psychiatric Technicians median of $45,130 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 29-2053 and area 19780. SOC 29-2053 names Psychiatric Technicians. Area 19780 names Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 29-2053/19780 row reports 300 wage and salary jobs, 0.73 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.73 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 29-2053/19780, the annual median is $39,750 per year, while the matching mean is $41,000 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 19780 facts behind this Psychiatric Technicians page
Area 19780 reports 404,130 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $65,970. Its annual median is $51,820. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 29-2053 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA runs from $29,900 at the 10th percentile to $113,430 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $37,550. The median is $51,820. The 75th percentile is $78,320. This is a place check, not a pay range for Psychiatric Technicians.
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 19780. They do not show related skills or a path into Psychiatric Technicians.
1. Area 19780, SOC 43-4051, Customer Service Representatives: 12,070 jobs, $48,880 annual median, 29.86 jobs per 1,000, and 1.79 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA wage ladder for Psychiatric Technicians
The 10th percentile is $35,760 per year. The 25th percentile is $37,590 per year. The median is $39,750 per year. The 75th percentile is $44,440 per year. The 90th percentile is $46,310 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 $37,590 per year to $44,440 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $10,550. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA with its state and the U.S.
Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA has a annual median of $39,750 per year. Iowa has $42,910 per year. The U.S. row has $45,130 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA is 7.4% below Iowa on the same published median. Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA is 11.9% 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 Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA sits for Psychiatric Technicians
Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA ranks 139 of 227 among metro areas with a published annual median for Psychiatric Technicians. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 139 of 227 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.
136. Chambersburg, PA has a Psychiatric Technicians median of $39,980 per year, 60 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.98.
137. Columbia, SC has a Psychiatric Technicians median of $39,980 per year, 210 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.53.
138. Panama City-Panama City Beach, FL has a Psychiatric Technicians median of $39,940 per year, 120 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.32.

Pay leaders
Where Psychiatric Technicians medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 29-2053, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Stockton-Lodi, CA has the highest published median in this set, at $95,580 per year. Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA sits at $39,750 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Psychiatric Technicians 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. Stockton-Lodi, CA has a Psychiatric Technicians median of $95,580 per year, or $55,830 above Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. BLS lists 330 jobs there, compared with 300 in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. The location quotient is 1.12.
2. Napa, CA has a Psychiatric Technicians median of $83,960 per year, or $44,210 above Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. BLS lists 320 jobs there, compared with 300 in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. The location quotient is 4.05.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Psychiatric Technicians jobs
Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN has the largest published metro job estimate for Psychiatric Technicians in this same-source set, at 6,730 jobs. Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA has 300. 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. Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN has 6,730 estimated Psychiatric Technicians jobs, a gap of 6,430 jobs from Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. Its median is $46,060 per year, or $6,310 above Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. Its location quotient is 1.48.
2. Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ has 6,630 estimated Psychiatric Technicians jobs, a gap of 6,330 jobs from Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. Its median is $46,550 per year, or $6,800 above Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. Its location quotient is 2.77.
Local-share leaders
Where Psychiatric Technicians takes the largest share of local jobs
Springfield, MO has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 5.46. Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA has 0.73. 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 Psychiatric Technicians 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. Springfield, MO has a location quotient of 5.46, a gap of 4.73 from Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. BLS lists 1,230 Psychiatric Technicians jobs and a median of $45,840 per year, or $6,090 above Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA.
2. Jonesboro, AR has a location quotient of 4.28, a gap of 3.55 from Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. BLS lists 260 Psychiatric Technicians jobs and a median of $37,330 per year, or $2,420 below Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA.
Job scale and share
How common Psychiatric Technicians is in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA
BLS lists 300 Psychiatric Technicians jobs in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. It also lists 0.73 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 0.73. A value of 1 means Psychiatric Technicians 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.
Psychiatric Technicians beside other roles in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA
The all-occupations median in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA is $51,820 per year. The Psychiatric Technicians median is $39,750 per year. Psychiatric Technicians is 23.3% 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 Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA. 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 Psychiatric Technicians. 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. Stockers and Order Fillers, SOC 53-7065, has a Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA median of $36,800 per year. BLS lists 7,430 jobs and a location quotient of 1.01.
2. Home Health and Personal Care Aides, SOC 31-1120, has a Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA median of $36,350 per year. BLS lists 6,210 jobs and a location quotient of 0.55.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA
Customer Service Representatives is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA table, at 12,070 jobs. Psychiatric Technicians has 300 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 404,130. 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 Psychiatric Technicians's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Customer Service Representatives has 12,070 jobs in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA, a gap of 11,770 from Psychiatric Technicians. Its median is $48,880 per year, or $9,130 above Psychiatric Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.79.
2. Retail Salespersons has 11,000 jobs in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA, a gap of 10,700 from Psychiatric Technicians. Its median is $33,430 per year, or $6,320 below Psychiatric Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.09.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA
Financial Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA role table, at $154,140 per year. Psychiatric Technicians has $39,750 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $51,820 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. Financial Managers has a median of $154,140 per year in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA, or $114,390 above Psychiatric Technicians. BLS lists 3,800 jobs, compared with 300 for Psychiatric Technicians. Its location quotient is 1.74.
2. Software Developers has a median of $126,460 per year in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA, or $86,710 above Psychiatric Technicians. BLS lists 4,240 jobs, compared with 300 for Psychiatric Technicians. Its location quotient is 0.97.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA
Insurance Sales Agents has the highest location quotient in the bounded Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA role table, at 2.36. Psychiatric Technicians has 0.73. 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 Psychiatric Technicians with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Insurance Sales Agents has a location quotient of 2.36 in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA, a gap of 1.63 from Psychiatric Technicians. BLS lists 2,940 jobs and a median of $61,140 per year, or $21,390 above Psychiatric Technicians.
2. Business Operations Specialists, All Other has a location quotient of 1.82 in Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA, a gap of 1.09 from Psychiatric Technicians. BLS lists 5,130 jobs and a median of $86,540 per year, or $46,790 above Psychiatric Technicians.
Price-level view
What $39,750 may mean after the Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA is 91.7. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 8.3% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $39,750 Psychiatric Technicians median by 91.7 divided by 100. The result is $43,347 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 84.7. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 84.6. Other services are 92.9. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
How much care to use with the Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA row
The employment RSE for this Psychiatric Technicians row is 23.1%. The mean-wage RSE is 2.3%. 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 300 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $41,000 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 Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Psychiatric Technicians. It uses a Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA 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 $39,750 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 Psychiatric Technicians row for Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA 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 300 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.73 is not a growth score. Rank 139 of 227 is not a place score. The 91.7 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 29-2053 in BLS area 19780. 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 300 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.
