How much do retail salespersons make in Missouri?

What the Retail Salespersons median says in Missouri

The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Retail Salespersons median in Missouri at $33,460 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 41-2031 and BLS area 29.

BLS lists 67,140 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 $36,310 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.

Missouri's Retail Salespersons median is 5.5% below the U.S. Retail Salespersons median of $35,410 on the same published median. Both values use the same job code and source date. They do not account for prices, taxes, benefits, hours, or your work history.

Read source key 41-2031 with area 29

This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 41-2031 and area 29. SOC 41-2031 names Retail Salespersons. Area 29 names Missouri. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.

The 41-2031/29 row has 67,140 wage and salary jobs. There are 22.87 for each 1,000 local jobs. The location quotient is 0.91. Each value stays under the same job and area codes.

For 41-2031/29, the annual median is $33,460 per year, while the matching mean is $36,310 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

• 41-2031/29 10th percentile: $28,600 per year.
• 41-2031/29 25th percentile: $29,850 per year.
• 41-2031/29 median: $33,460 per year.
• 41-2031/29 75th percentile: $36,940 per year.
• 41-2031/29 90th percentile: $46,610 per year.
• 41-2031/29 employment RSE: 2%. Mean-wage RSE: 0.6%.
• 41-2031/29 has no suppression mark in the fields shown on this page.

BLS area 29 facts behind this Retail Salespersons 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 41-2031 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 Retail Salespersons.

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 Retail Salespersons.

• 1. General and Operations Managers. Area: 29. SOC: 11-1021. Jobs: 109,020. Yearly median: $79,300. Jobs per 1,000: 37.13. Location quotient: 1.65.

Read the Missouri wage ladder for Retail Salespersons

The 10th percentile is $28,600 per year. The 25th percentile is $29,850 per year. The median is $33,460 per year. The 75th percentile is $36,940 per year. The 90th percentile is $46,610 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 $29,850 per year to $36,940 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $18,010. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.

Compare Missouri with its state and the U.S.

Missouri has a annual median of $33,460 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $35,410 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.

A state comparison is not available for Missouri. Missouri is 5.5% 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 benchmarks, 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 Missouri sits for Retail Salespersons

Missouri ranks 32 of 54 among states and territories with a published annual median for Retail Salespersons. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.

Rank 32 of 54 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.

• 29. Nevada. The Retail Salespersons median is $34,190 per year. BLS estimates 43,920 jobs. The location quotient is 1.13.
• 30. Florida. The Retail Salespersons median is $34,010 per year. BLS estimates 333,460 jobs. The location quotient is 1.34.
• 31. Utah. The Retail Salespersons median is $33,900 per year. BLS estimates 47,570 jobs. The location quotient is 1.09.
• 33. New Mexico. The Retail Salespersons median is $33,300 per year. BLS estimates 23,800 jobs. The location quotient is 1.09.
• 34. Kansas. The Retail Salespersons median is $32,180 per year. BLS estimates 33,360 jobs. The location quotient is 0.93.
• 35. Tennessee. The Retail Salespersons median is $31,950 per year. BLS estimates 87,380 jobs. The location quotient is 1.06.

Where Retail Salespersons medians lead among states and territories

The rows below use the same SOC 41-2031, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Washington has the highest published median in this set, at $39,560 per year. Missouri sits at $33,460 per year.

A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Retail Salespersons 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 limits, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.

• 1. Washington has a Retail Salespersons median of $39,560 per year, or $6,100 above Missouri. BLS lists 84,850 jobs there, compared with 67,140 in Missouri. The location quotient is 0.95.

Where BLS counts the most Retail Salespersons jobs

California has the largest published state job estimate for Retail Salespersons in this same-source set, at 376,460 jobs. Missouri has 67,140. 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 376,460 estimated Retail Salespersons jobs, a gap of 309,320 jobs from Missouri. Its median is $38,440 per year, or $4,980 above Missouri. Its location quotient is 0.82.

Where Retail Salespersons takes the largest share of local jobs

Puerto Rico has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 1.75. Missouri has 0.91. 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 Retail Salespersons 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. Puerto Rico has a location quotient of 1.75, a gap of 0.84 from Missouri. BLS lists 41,230 Retail Salespersons jobs and a median of $22,560 per year, or $10,900 below Missouri.
• 2. Virgin Islands (territory) has a location quotient of 1.61, a gap of 0.70 from Missouri. BLS lists 1,300 Retail Salespersons jobs and a median of $28,790 per year, or $4,670 below Missouri.

How common Retail Salespersons is in Missouri

BLS lists 67,140 Retail Salespersons jobs in Missouri. It also lists 22.87 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 0.91. A value of 1 means Retail Salespersons 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.

Retail Salespersons beside other roles in Missouri

The all-occupations median in Missouri is $47,800 per year. The Retail Salespersons median is $33,460 per year. Retail Salespersons is 30.0% 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 Retail Salespersons. 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. Home Health and Personal Care Aides, SOC 31-1120, has a Missouri median of $33,080 per year. BLS lists 94,810 jobs and a location quotient of 1.17.
• 2. Janitors and Cleaners, Except Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners, SOC 37-2011, has a Missouri median of $35,900 per year. BLS lists 41,070 jobs and a location quotient of 0.98.

The largest detailed roles in Missouri

General and Operations Managers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Missouri table, at 109,020 jobs. Retail Salespersons has 67,140 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 Retail Salespersons's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.

• 1. General and Operations Managers has 109,020 jobs in Missouri, a gap of 41,880 from Retail Salespersons. Its median is $79,300 per year, or $45,840 above Retail Salespersons. Its location quotient is 1.65.

Published role medians around Missouri

Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Missouri role table, at $126,120 per year. Retail Salespersons has $33,460 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 $92,660 above Retail Salespersons. BLS lists 20,020 jobs, compared with 67,140 for Retail Salespersons. Its location quotient is 0.63.

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. Retail Salespersons has 0.91. 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 Retail Salespersons 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 3.70 from Retail Salespersons. BLS lists 55,780 jobs and a median of $29,890 per year, or $3,570 below Retail Salespersons.
• 2. General and Operations Managers has a location quotient of 1.65 in Missouri, a gap of 0.74 from Retail Salespersons. BLS lists 109,020 jobs and a median of $79,300 per year, or $45,840 above Retail Salespersons.
• 3. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education has a location quotient of 1.27 in Missouri, a gap of 0.36 from Retail Salespersons. BLS lists 33,180 jobs and a median of $50,910 per year, or $17,450 above Retail Salespersons.

• 6. Nursing Assistants has a location quotient of 1.24 in Missouri, a gap of 0.33 from Retail Salespersons. BLS lists 34,050 jobs and a median of $37,680 per year, or $4,220 above Retail Salespersons.

• 8. Secondary School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education has a location quotient of 1.21 in Missouri, a gap of 0.30 from Retail Salespersons. BLS lists 24,380 jobs and a median of $59,240 per year, or $25,780 above Retail Salespersons.

What $33,460 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 $33,460 Retail Salespersons median by 90.8 divided by 100. The result is $36,843 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.

How much care to use with the Missouri row

The employment RSE for this Retail Salespersons row is 2%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.6%. 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 67,140 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $36,310 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 Missouri wage data before you tailor

The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Retail Salespersons. 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. Listings can change between visits while the survey figures stay tied to their release date. A listing range does not replace the $33,460 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 Retail Salespersons 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 67,140 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.91 is not a growth score. Rank 32 of 54 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 41-2031 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.
