Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) was 7.4% below the U.S. median for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. It ranked 51 of 137 nonmetro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median says in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area)
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) at $44,040 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 7800001.
BLS lists 530 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 $43,450 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Virgin Islands (nonmetro area)'s Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median is 7.4% below the U.S. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median of $47,540 on the same published median.

Exact source record
Read source key 43-6014 with area 7800001
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 43-6014 and area 7800001. SOC 43-6014 names Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive.

The all-jobs wage ladder in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) runs from $26,340 at the 10th percentile to $89,620 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $31,070. The median is $42,860. The 75th percentile is $62,080. This is a place check, not a pay range for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive.
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 7800001. They do not show related skills or a path into Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive.
1. Area 7800001, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 1,300 jobs, $28,790 annual median, 40.5 jobs per 1,000, and 1.62 location quotient.

Map name check
Why this is the Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) row
This URL points to the BLS nonmetro table, under area code 7800001. A second source row uses the same base place name in the state and territory table. The words in parentheses help a reader see which map record supplied the answer.
The nonmetro record stands on its own. WageScope keeps its 530 job estimate and $44,040 median under this code. It never fills this page from the broad territory row. It never treats two matching values as permission to blend the records.
Choose this page only for the published nonmetro entry. For the broad territory entry, follow its separate labeled page. A careful comparison keeps both area codes in view, reads the same wage unit, and checks the May 2025 date before using either number.
Pay range
Read the Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) wage ladder for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive
The 10th percentile is $32,380 per year. The 25th percentile is $36,680 per year. The median is $44,040 per year. The 75th percentile is $49,110 per year. The 90th percentile is $56,490 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 $36,680 per year to $49,110 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $24,110. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Same-source checks
Compare Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) with its state and the U.S.
Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) has a annual median of $44,040 per year. Virgin Islands (territory) has $44,040 per year. The U.S. row has $47,540 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) and Virgin Islands (territory) have the same published median after rounding. Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) is 7.4% 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.
Like-for-like rank
Where Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) sits for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive
Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) ranks 51 of 137 among nonmetro areas 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 51 of 137 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.
48. West Northwestern Ohio nonmetropolitan area has a Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median of $44,350 per year, 2,640 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.96.
49. Northwest Illinois nonmetropolitan area has a Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median of $44,150 per year, 1,670 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.2.
50. Southern Ohio nonmetropolitan area has a Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median of $44,130 per year, 1,950 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.09.
Pay leaders
Where Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 43-6014, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Massachusetts nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $56,340 per year. Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) sits at $44,040 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 care marks, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. Massachusetts nonmetropolitan area has a Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median of $56,340 per year, or $12,300 above Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). BLS lists 560 jobs there, compared with 530 in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). The location quotient is 1.24.
2. Eastern Sierra-Mother Lode Region of California nonmetropolitan area has a Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median of $52,920 per year, or $8,880 above Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). BLS lists 560 jobs there, compared with 530 in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). The location quotient is 0.81.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs
Kansas nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive in this same-source set, at 9,830 jobs. Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) has 530. 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. Kansas nonmetropolitan area has 9,830 estimated Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs, a gap of 9,300 jobs from Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). Its median is $38,290 per year, or $5,750 below Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). Its location quotient is 2.39.
2. Eastern New Mexico nonmetropolitan area has 4,470 estimated Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs, a gap of 3,940 jobs from Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). Its median is $42,850 per year, or $1,190 below Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). Its location quotient is 2.45.
Local-share leaders
Where Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive takes the largest share of local jobs
Northern New Mexico nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 3.51. Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) has 1.5. 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. Northern New Mexico nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 3.51, a gap of 2.01 from Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). BLS lists 3,250 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs and a median of $47,550 per year, or $3,510 above Virgin Islands (nonmetro area).
2. Eastern New Mexico nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 2.45, a gap of 0.95 from Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). BLS lists 4,470 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs and a median of $42,850 per year, or $1,190 below Virgin Islands (nonmetro area).
Job scale and share
How common Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive is in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area)
BLS lists 530 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). It also lists 16.45 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 1.5. 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 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.
Local job mix
Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive beside other roles in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area)
The all-occupations median in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) is $42,860 per year. The Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive median is $44,040 per year. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive is 2.8% 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 Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). 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.
1. First-Line Supervisors of Retail Sales Workers, SOC 41-1011, has a Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) median of $44,880 per year. BLS lists 440 jobs and a location quotient of 1.89.
2. Construction Laborers, SOC 47-2061, has a Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) median of $42,200 per year. BLS lists 370 jobs and a location quotient of 1.65.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area)
Retail Salespersons is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) table, at 1,300 jobs. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has 530 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 32,050. 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 Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Retail Salespersons has 1,300 jobs in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area), a gap of 770 from Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. Its median is $28,790 per year, or $15,250 below Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. Its location quotient is 1.62.
2. General and Operations Managers has 1,040 jobs in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area), a gap of 510 from Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Virgin Islands (nonmetro area)
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) role table, at $84,120 per year. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has $44,040 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $42,860 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. Registered Nurses has a median of $84,120 per year in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area), or $40,080 above Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. BLS lists 470 jobs, compared with 530 for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. Its location quotient is 0.67.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $82,850 per year in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area), or $38,810 above Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. BLS lists 1,040 jobs, compared with 530 for Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. Its location quotient is 1.44.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area)
Reservation and Transportation Ticket Agents and Travel Clerks has the highest location quotient in the bounded Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) role table, at 12.3. Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive has 1.5. 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. Reservation and Transportation Ticket Agents and Travel Clerks has a location quotient of 12.3 in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area), a gap of 10.80 from Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive. BLS lists 300 jobs and a median of $29,030 per year, or $15,010 below Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive.
Price-level view
What $44,040 may mean after the Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for Virgin Islands (nonmetro area). It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $44,040 BLS median stays a nominal wage.
No price row means no national-price-dollar proxy. It does not mean prices match the U.S. level. It does not say whether a wage goes far or not. The source is missing for this exact map key, so the price answer stays open.
You can still compare Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive with the U.S. or with like nonmetro areas on the same BLS metric. Keep that as a nominal wage comparison. Add price-level context only when an exact reviewed row exists.
Data care
How much care to use with the Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) row
The employment RSE for this Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive row is 6.1%. The mean-wage RSE is 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 530 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $43,450 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.
Job and résumé path
Use Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) 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 Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) 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 $44,040 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.
Limits
What the Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive row for Virgin Islands (nonmetro area) 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 530 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.5 is not a growth score. Rank 51 of 137 is not a place score. A missing 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 7800001. 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.
How many Secretaries and Administrative Assistants, Except Legal, Medical, and Executive jobs does BLS estimate in Virgin Islands (nonmetro area)?
