What the Security Guards median says in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Security Guards median in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV at $46,830 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 33-9032 and BLS area 47900.
BLS lists 40,950 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 $54,430 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV's Security Guards median is 23.2% above the U.S. Security Guards median of $38,020 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 33-9032 and area 47900. SOC 33-9032 names Security Guards. Area 47900 names Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 33-9032/47900 row reports 40,950 wage and salary jobs, 13.06 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 1.58 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 33-9032/47900, the annual median is $46,830 per year, while the matching mean is $54,430 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

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 Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV sits for Security Guards
Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV ranks 13 of 389 among metro areas with a published annual median for Security Guards. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 13 of 389 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.

11. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA has a Security Guards median of $47,490 per year, 17,030 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.99.

Pay leaders
Where Security Guards medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 33-9032, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Idaho Falls, ID has the highest published median in this set, at $78,680 per year. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV sits at $46,830 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Security Guards 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. Idaho Falls, ID has a Security Guards median of $78,680 per year, or $31,850 above Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. BLS lists 570 jobs there, compared with 40,950 in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. The location quotient is 0.84.
2. Fairbanks-College, AK has a Security Guards median of $60,400 per year, or $13,570 above Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. BLS lists 130 jobs there, compared with 40,950 in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. The location quotient is 0.44.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Security Guards jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Security Guards in this same-source set, at 142,760 jobs. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has 40,950. 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. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 142,760 estimated Security Guards jobs, a gap of 101,810 jobs from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Its median is $43,980 per year, or $2,850 below Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Its location quotient is 1.82.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 83,280 estimated Security Guards jobs, a gap of 42,330 jobs from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Its median is $40,030 per year, or $6,800 below Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Its location quotient is 1.61.
Local-share leaders
Where Security Guards takes the largest share of local jobs
San Juan-Bayamon-Caguas, PR has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 3.93. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has 1.58. 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 Security Guards 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. San Juan-Bayamon-Caguas, PR has a location quotient of 3.93, a gap of 2.35 from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. BLS lists 22,420 Security Guards jobs and a median of $21,840 per year, or $24,990 below Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV.
2. Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV has a location quotient of 2.54, a gap of 0.96 from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. BLS lists 23,800 Security Guards jobs and a median of $37,210 per year, or $9,620 below Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV.
Job scale and share
How common Security Guards is in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV
BLS lists 40,950 Security Guards jobs in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. It also lists 13.06 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 1.58. A value of 1 means Security Guards 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.
Security Guards beside other roles in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV
The all-occupations median in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV is $71,060 per year. The Security Guards median is $46,830 per year. Security Guards is 34.1% 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 Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. 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 Security Guards. 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. Customer Service Representatives, SOC 43-4051, has a Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV median of $46,220 per year. BLS lists 36,750 jobs and a location quotient of 0.7.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV
General and Operations Managers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV table, at 112,530 jobs. Security Guards has 40,950 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 3,136,190. 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 Security Guards's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. General and Operations Managers has 112,530 jobs in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV, a gap of 71,580 from Security Guards. Its median is $156,460 per year, or $109,630 above Security Guards. Its location quotient is 1.59.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV
Lawyers has the highest published median in the bounded Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV role table, at $195,190 per year. Security Guards has $46,830 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $71,060 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. Lawyers has a median of $195,190 per year in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV, or $148,360 above Security Guards. BLS lists 46,840 jobs, compared with 40,950 for Security Guards. Its location quotient is 3.08.
2. Financial Managers has a median of $185,270 per year in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV, or $138,440 above Security Guards. BLS lists 26,430 jobs, compared with 40,950 for Security Guards. Its location quotient is 1.56.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV
Business Operations Specialists, All Other has the highest location quotient in the bounded Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV role table, at 3.49. Security Guards has 1.58. 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 Security Guards with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Business Operations Specialists, All Other has a location quotient of 3.49 in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV, a gap of 1.91 from Security Guards. BLS lists 76,600 jobs and a median of $104,770 per year, or $57,940 above Security Guards.

Price-level view
What $46,830 may mean after the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV is 108.9. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 8.9% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $46,830 Security Guards median by 108.9 divided by 100. The result is $43,009 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 151.1. Goods are 104.8. Utilities are 106.7. Other services are 102.3. 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 Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV row
The employment RSE for this Security Guards row is 2.7%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.5%. 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 40,950 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $54,430 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 Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Security Guards. It uses a Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV 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 $46,830 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 Security Guards row for Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV 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 40,950 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.58 is not a growth score. Rank 13 of 389 is not a place score. The 108.9 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 33-9032 in BLS area 47900. 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 40,950 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.
