What the Sales and Related Workers, All Other median says in South Dakota
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Sales and Related Workers, All Other median in South Dakota at $61,550 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 41-9099 and BLS area 46.
BLS lists 160 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 $65,840 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
South Dakota's Sales and Related Workers, All Other median is 27.5% above the U.S. Sales and Related Workers, All Other median of $48,280 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 41-9099 and area 46. SOC 41-9099 names Sales and Related Workers, All Other. Area 46 names South Dakota. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 41-9099/46 row reports 160 wage and salary jobs, 0.36 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.59 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 41-9099/46, the annual median is $61,550 per year, while the matching mean is $65,840 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 46 facts behind this Sales and Related Workers, All Other page
Area 46 reports 457,380 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $57,610. Its annual median is $47,080. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 41-9099 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in South Dakota runs from $29,300 at the 10th percentile to $94,900 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,030. The median is $47,080. The 75th percentile is $64,020. This is a place check, not a pay range for Sales and Related Workers, All Other.
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 46. They do not show related skills or a path into Sales and Related Workers, All Other.
1. Area 46, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 15,150 jobs, $29,490 annual median, 33.11 jobs per 1,000, and 1.34 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the South Dakota wage ladder for Sales and Related Workers, All Other
The 10th percentile is $44,150 per year. The 25th percentile is $44,150 per year. The median is $61,550 per year. The 75th percentile is $69,760 per year. The 90th percentile is $129,960 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 $44,150 per year to $69,760 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $85,810. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
South Dakota has a annual median of $61,550 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $48,280 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for South Dakota. South Dakota is 27.5% 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.
Where South Dakota sits for Sales and Related Workers, All Other
South Dakota ranks 6 of 50 among states and territories with a published annual median for Sales and Related Workers, All Other. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 6 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.
3. Hawaii has a Sales and Related Workers, All Other median of $70,720 per year, 110 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.28.
4. Connecticut has a Sales and Related Workers, All Other median of $65,740 per year, 490 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.48.
5. Delaware has a Sales and Related Workers, All Other median of $64,590 per year, 90 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.3.
7. Colorado has a Sales and Related Workers, All Other median of $60,670 per year, 6,340 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 3.68.
Pay leaders
Where Sales and Related Workers, All Other medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 41-9099, 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 $75,100 per year. South Dakota sits at $61,550 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Sales and Related Workers, All Other 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. Washington has a Sales and Related Workers, All Other median of $75,100 per year, or $13,550 above South Dakota. BLS lists 2,840 jobs there, compared with 160 in South Dakota. The location quotient is 1.33.
2. New Jersey has a Sales and Related Workers, All Other median of $74,520 per year, or $12,970 above South Dakota. BLS lists 4,190 jobs there, compared with 160 in South Dakota. The location quotient is 1.63.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Sales and Related Workers, All Other jobs
California has the largest published state job estimate for Sales and Related Workers, All Other in this same-source set, at 28,480 jobs. South Dakota has 160. 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 28,480 estimated Sales and Related Workers, All Other jobs, a gap of 28,320 jobs from South Dakota. Its median is $52,810 per year, or $8,740 below South Dakota. Its location quotient is 2.61.
2. Texas has 11,400 estimated Sales and Related Workers, All Other jobs, a gap of 11,240 jobs from South Dakota. Its median is $38,170 per year, or $23,380 below South Dakota. Its location quotient is 1.35.
Local-share leaders
Where Sales and Related Workers, All Other takes the largest share of local jobs
Colorado has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 3.68. South Dakota has 0.59. 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 Sales and Related Workers, All Other 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. Colorado has a location quotient of 3.68, a gap of 3.09 from South Dakota. BLS lists 6,340 Sales and Related Workers, All Other jobs and a median of $60,670 per year, or $880 below South Dakota.
2. California has a location quotient of 2.61, a gap of 2.02 from South Dakota. BLS lists 28,480 Sales and Related Workers, All Other jobs and a median of $52,810 per year, or $8,740 below South Dakota.
3. Virgin Islands (territory) has a location quotient of 1.76, a gap of 1.17 from South Dakota. BLS lists 30 Sales and Related Workers, All Other jobs and a median of $31,650 per year, or $29,900 below South Dakota.
Job scale and share
How common Sales and Related Workers, All Other is in South Dakota
BLS lists 160 Sales and Related Workers, All Other jobs in South Dakota. It also lists 0.36 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 0.59. A value of 1 means Sales and Related Workers, All Other 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.
Sales and Related Workers, All Other beside other roles in South Dakota
The all-occupations median in South Dakota is $47,080 per year. The Sales and Related Workers, All Other median is $61,550 per year. Sales and Related Workers, All Other is 30.7% 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 South Dakota. 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 Sales and Related Workers, All Other. 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. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers, SOC 53-3032, has a South Dakota median of $58,690 per year. BLS lists 6,470 jobs and a location quotient of 1.07.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Retail Sales Workers, SOC 41-1011, has a South Dakota median of $56,680 per year. BLS lists 3,660 jobs and a location quotient of 1.11.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in South Dakota
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded South Dakota table, at 15,150 jobs. Sales and Related Workers, All Other has 160 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 457,380. 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 Sales and Related Workers, All Other's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 15,150 jobs in South Dakota, a gap of 14,990 from Sales and Related Workers, All Other. Its median is $29,490 per year, or $32,060 below Sales and Related Workers, All Other. Its location quotient is 1.34.
2. Registered Nurses has 14,710 jobs in South Dakota, a gap of 14,550 from Sales and Related Workers, All Other. Its median is $78,060 per year, or $16,510 above Sales and Related Workers, All Other. Its location quotient is 1.48.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around South Dakota
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded South Dakota role table, at $137,400 per year. Sales and Related Workers, All Other has $61,550 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $47,080 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 $137,400 per year in South Dakota, or $75,850 above Sales and Related Workers, All Other. BLS lists 4,280 jobs, compared with 160 for Sales and Related Workers, All Other. Its location quotient is 0.42.
2. Accountants and Auditors has a median of $78,880 per year in South Dakota, or $17,330 above Sales and Related Workers, All Other. BLS lists 5,820 jobs, compared with 160 for Sales and Related Workers, All Other. Its location quotient is 1.36.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in South Dakota
Welders, Cutters, Solderers, and Brazers has the highest location quotient in the bounded South Dakota role table, at 2.66. Sales and Related Workers, All Other has 0.59. 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 Sales and Related Workers, All Other with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Welders, Cutters, Solderers, and Brazers has a location quotient of 2.66 in South Dakota, a gap of 2.07 from Sales and Related Workers, All Other. BLS lists 3,250 jobs and a median of $49,440 per year, or $12,110 below Sales and Related Workers, All Other.
2. Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Auditing Clerks has a location quotient of 2.52 in South Dakota, a gap of 1.93 from Sales and Related Workers, All Other. BLS lists 10,200 jobs and a median of $46,340 per year, or $15,210 below Sales and Related Workers, All Other.
Price-level view
What $61,550 may mean after the South Dakota price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for South Dakota is 88.6. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 11.4% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $61,550 Sales and Related Workers, All Other median by 88.6 divided by 100. The result is $69,481 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 67.6. Goods are 95.5. Utilities are 79.7. Other services are 91.9. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Sales and Related Workers, All Other row is 12.7%. The mean-wage RSE is 10.7%. 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 160 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $65,840 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 Sales and Related Workers, All Other. It uses a South Dakota 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 $61,550 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 Sales and Related Workers, All Other row for South Dakota 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 160 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.59 is not a growth score. Rank 6 of 50 is not a place score. The 88.6 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 41-9099 in BLS area 46. 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 160 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.
