What the Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median says in Maine
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median in Maine at $39,850 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 51-6042 and BLS area 23.
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 $40,840 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Maine's Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median is 11.8% above the U.S. Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median of $35,650 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 51-6042 and area 23. SOC 51-6042 names Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. Area 23 names Maine. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 51-6042/23 row reports 530 wage and salary jobs, 0.83 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 39.22 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 51-6042/23, the annual median is $39,850 per year, while the matching mean is $40,840 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 23 facts behind this Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders page
Area 23 reports 640,610 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $65,780. Its annual median is $51,430. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 51-6042 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Maine runs from $35,140 at the 10th percentile to $105,510 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $40,120. The median is $51,430. The 75th percentile is $76,230. This is a place check, not a pay range for Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders.
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 23. They do not show related skills or a path into Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders.
1. Area 23, SOC 31-1120, Home Health and Personal Care Aides: 18,630 jobs, $38,580 annual median, 29.08 jobs per 1,000, and 1.05 location quotient.
2. Area 23, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 18,450 jobs, $36,640 annual median, 28.8 jobs per 1,000, and 1.15 location quotient.
3. Area 23, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 17,250 jobs, $34,710 annual median, 26.93 jobs per 1,000, and 1.09 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Maine wage ladder for Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders
The 10th percentile is $31,450 per year. The 25th percentile is $36,250 per year. The median is $39,850 per year. The 75th percentile is $47,700 per year. The 90th percentile is $48,740 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 $36,250 per year to $47,700 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $17,290. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Maine has a annual median of $39,850 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $35,650 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Maine. Maine is 11.8% 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 Maine sits for Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders
Maine ranks 3 of 6 among states and territories with a published annual median for Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 3 of 6 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.
1. New York has a Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median of $48,420 per year, 40 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.18.
2. California has a Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median of $47,730 per year, 30 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.09.
4. Wisconsin has a Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median of $37,970 per year, 110 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.8.
5. Minnesota has a Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median of $37,600 per year, 370 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 5.92.
Pay leaders
Where Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 51-6042, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. New York has the highest published median in this set, at $48,420 per year. Maine sits at $39,850 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders 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. New York has a Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median of $48,420 per year, or $8,570 above Maine. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with 530 in Maine. The location quotient is 0.18.
2. California has a Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median of $47,730 per year, or $7,880 above Maine. BLS lists 30 jobs there, compared with 530 in Maine. The location quotient is 0.09.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders jobs
Maine has the largest published state job estimate for Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders in this same-source set, at 530 jobs. Maine 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. Maine has 530 estimated Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders jobs, a gap of 0 jobs from Maine. Its median is $39,850 per year, or $0 above Maine. Its location quotient is 39.22.
2. Texas has 500 estimated Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders jobs, a gap of 30 jobs from Maine. Its median is $26,560 per year, or $13,290 below Maine. Its location quotient is 1.67.
3. Minnesota has 370 estimated Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders jobs, a gap of 160 jobs from Maine. Its median is $37,600 per year, or $2,250 below Maine. Its location quotient is 5.92.
Local-share leaders
Where Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders takes the largest share of local jobs
Maine has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 39.22. Maine has 39.22. 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 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders 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. Maine has a location quotient of 39.22, a gap of 0.00 from Maine. BLS lists 530 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders jobs and a median of $39,850 per year, or $0 above Maine.
2. Minnesota has a location quotient of 5.92, a gap of 33.30 from Maine. BLS lists 370 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders jobs and a median of $37,600 per year, or $2,250 below Maine.
3. Wisconsin has a location quotient of 1.8, a gap of 37.42 from Maine. BLS lists 110 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders jobs and a median of $37,970 per year, or $1,880 below Maine.
Job scale and share
How common Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders is in Maine
BLS lists 530 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders jobs in Maine. It also lists 0.83 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 39.22. A value of 1 means Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders 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.
Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders beside other roles in Maine
The all-occupations median in Maine is $51,430 per year. The Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median is $39,850 per year. Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders is 22.5% 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 Maine. 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 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. 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. Janitors and Cleaners, Except Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners, SOC 37-2011, has a Maine median of $38,940 per year. BLS lists 9,180 jobs and a location quotient of 1.01.
2. Home Health and Personal Care Aides, SOC 31-1120, has a Maine median of $38,580 per year. BLS lists 18,630 jobs and a location quotient of 1.05.
3. Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners, SOC 37-2012, has a Maine median of $37,630 per year. BLS lists 4,960 jobs and a location quotient of 1.4.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Maine
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Maine table, at 18,630 jobs. Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders 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 640,610. 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 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 18,630 jobs in Maine, a gap of 18,100 from Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. Its median is $38,580 per year, or $1,270 below Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. Its location quotient is 1.05.
2. Retail Salespersons has 18,450 jobs in Maine, a gap of 17,920 from Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. Its median is $36,640 per year, or $3,210 below Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. Its location quotient is 1.15.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Maine
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Maine role table, at $98,860 per year. Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders has $39,850 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $51,430 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 $98,860 per year in Maine, or $59,010 above Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. BLS lists 14,770 jobs, compared with 530 for Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. Its location quotient is 1.02.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $86,990 per year in Maine, or $47,140 above Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. BLS lists 16,540 jobs, compared with 530 for Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. Its location quotient is 1.19.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Maine
Social and Human Service Assistants has the highest location quotient in the bounded Maine role table, at 2.54. Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders has 39.22. 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 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Social and Human Service Assistants has a location quotient of 2.54 in Maine, a gap of 36.68 from Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. BLS lists 4,580 jobs and a median of $47,710 per year, or $7,860 above Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders.
2. Childcare Workers has a location quotient of 2.33 in Maine, a gap of 36.89 from Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. BLS lists 4,990 jobs and a median of $36,350 per year, or $3,500 below Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders.
Price-level view
What $39,850 may mean after the Maine price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Maine is 97.0. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 3.0% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $39,850 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders median by 97.0 divided by 100. The result is $41,061 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 78.9. Goods are 97.2. Utilities are 135.2. Other services are 103.2. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders row is 12.2%. The mean-wage RSE is 3.7%. 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 530 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $40,840 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 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders. It uses a Maine 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 $39,850 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 Shoe Machine Operators and Tenders row for Maine 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 39.22 is not a growth score. Rank 3 of 6 is not a place score. The 97.0 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 51-6042 in BLS area 23. 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 530 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.
