How much do secretaries and administrative assistants, except legal, medical, and executive make in Ohio?

What the Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median says in Ohio

The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median in Ohio at $46,230 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 43-6014 and BLS area 39.

BLS lists 54,790 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 $47,360 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.

Ohio's Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median is 2.8% below the U.S. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median of $47,540 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 43-6014 with area 39

This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 43-6014 and area 39. SOC 43-6014 names Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. Area 39 names Ohio. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.

The 43-6014/39 row has 54,790 wage and salary jobs. There are 9.87 for each 1,000 local jobs. The location quotient is 0.9. Each value stays under the same job and area codes.

For 43-6014/39, the annual median is $46,230 per year, while the matching mean is $47,360 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

Read the Ohio wage ladder for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive

The 10th percentile is $32,130 per year. The 25th percentile is $38,170 per year. The median is $46,230 per year. The 75th percentile is $53,710 per year. The 90th percentile is $63,150 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 $38,170 per year to $53,710 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $31,020. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.

Compare Ohio with its state and the U.S.

Ohio has a annual median of $46,230 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $47,540 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.

A state comparison is not available for Ohio. Ohio is 2.8% 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 Ohio sits for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive

Ohio ranks 29 of 54 among states and territories with a published annual median for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.

Rank 29 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.

• 26. Nevada. The Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median is $46,570 per year. BLS estimates 16,790 jobs. The location quotient is 0.99.

Where Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive medians lead among states and territories

The rows below use the same SOC 43-6014, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. District of Columbia has the highest published median in this set, at $59,910 per year. Ohio sits at $46,230 per year.

A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive 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.

Where BLS counts the most Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs

California has the largest published state job estimate for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive in this same-source set, at 158,630 jobs. Ohio has 54,790. 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 158,630 estimated Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs, a gap of 103,840 jobs from Ohio. Its median is $55,400 per year, or $9,170 above Ohio. Its location quotient is 0.79.

Where Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive takes the largest share of local jobs

New Mexico has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 2.66. Ohio has 0.9. 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 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive 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. New Mexico has a location quotient of 2.66, a gap of 1.76 from Ohio. BLS lists 25,430 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs and a median of $46,450 per year, or $220 above Ohio.

How common Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive is in Ohio

BLS lists 54,790 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs in Ohio. It also lists 9.87 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 0.9. A value of 1 means Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive 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.

Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive beside other roles in Ohio

The all-occupations median in Ohio is $49,380 per year. The Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median is $46,230 per year. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive is 6.4% 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 Ohio. 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 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. 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.

The largest detailed roles in Ohio

Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Ohio table, at 163,560 jobs. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has 54,790 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 5,550,180. 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 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.

Published role medians around Ohio

Software Developers has the highest published median in the bounded Ohio role table, at $114,090 per year. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has $46,230 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.

The local all-occupations median is $49,380 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 $114,090 per year in Ohio, or $67,860 above Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive.

Roles with the largest local share in Ohio

Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Ohio role table, at 1.86. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has 0.9. 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 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.

• 1. Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has a location quotient of 1.86 in Ohio, a gap of 0.96 from Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. BLS lists 93,480 jobs and a median of $45,720 per year, or $510 below Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive.

What $46,230 may mean after the Ohio price level

BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Ohio is 92.8. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 7.2% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.

WageScope divides the $46,230 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median by 92.8 divided by 100. The result is $49,831 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 73.0. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 95.8. Other services are 98.9. 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 Ohio row

The employment RSE for this Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive row is 1.6%. 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 54,790 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $47,360 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 Ohio wage data before you tailor

The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. It uses a Ohio 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 $46,230 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 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive row for Ohio 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 54,790 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.9 is not a growth score. Rank 29 of 54 is not a place score. The 92.8 price index is not a personal budget.

Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 43-6014 in BLS area 39. 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.
