1.8%
Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA was 40.8% below the U.S. median for Social Science Research Assistants. It ranked 67 of 72 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Social Science Research Assistants median says in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Social Science Research Assistants median in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA at $36,710 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 19-4061 and BLS area 40140.
BLS lists 100 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 $53,230 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA's Social Science Research Assistants median is 40.8% below the U.S. Social Science Research Assistants median of $61,990 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.
Exact source record
Read source key 19-4061 with area 40140
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 19-4061 and area 40140. SOC 19-4061 names Social Science Research Assistants. Area 40140 names Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 19-4061/40140 row reports 100 wage and salary jobs, 0.06 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.3 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 19-4061/40140, the annual median is $36,710 per year, while the matching mean is $53,230 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
19-4061/40140 has no suppression mark in the fields shown on this page.

Same-source checks
Compare Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA with its state and the U.S.
Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA has a annual median of $36,710 per year. California has $60,250 per year. The U.S. row has $61,990 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA is 39.1% below California on the same published median. Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA is 40.8% 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 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 Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA sits for Social Science Research Assistants
Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA ranks 67 of 72 among metro areas with a published annual median for Social Science Research Assistants. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 67 of 72 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.
64. Nashville-Davidson--Murfreesboro--Franklin, TN has a Social Science Research Assistants median of $46,410 per year, 90 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.41.
65. Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI has a Social Science Research Assistants median of $45,760 per year, 260 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.69.
66. Ann Arbor, MI has a Social Science Research Assistants median of $43,060 per year, 190 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 4.31.

Pay leaders
Where Social Science Research Assistants medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 19-4061, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Flagstaff, AZ has the highest published median in this set, at $86,020 per year. Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA sits at $36,710 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Social Science Research Assistants 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. Flagstaff, AZ has a Social Science Research Assistants median of $86,020 per year, or $49,310 above Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with 100 in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. The location quotient is 2.8.
2. Bowling Green, KY has a Social Science Research Assistants median of $84,680 per year, or $47,970 above Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. BLS lists 100 jobs there, compared with 100 in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. The location quotient is 6.05.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Social Science Research Assistants jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Social Science Research Assistants in this same-source set, at 2,610 jobs. Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA has 100. 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 2,610 estimated Social Science Research Assistants jobs, a gap of 2,510 jobs from Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. Its median is $65,330 per year, or $28,620 above Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. Its location quotient is 1.4.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 2,290 estimated Social Science Research Assistants jobs, a gap of 2,190 jobs from Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. Its median is $59,240 per year, or $22,530 above Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. Its location quotient is 1.86.
Local-share leaders
Where Social Science Research Assistants takes the largest share of local jobs
Athens-Clarke County, GA has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 16.21. Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA has 0.3. 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 Social Science Research Assistants 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. Athens-Clarke County, GA has a location quotient of 16.21, a gap of 15.91 from Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. BLS lists 310 Social Science Research Assistants jobs and a median of $52,890 per year, or $16,180 above Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA.
2. Greenville, NC has a location quotient of 9.27, a gap of 8.97 from Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. BLS lists 150 Social Science Research Assistants jobs and a median of $53,140 per year, or $16,430 above Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA.
Job scale and share
How common Social Science Research Assistants is in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA
BLS lists 100 Social Science Research Assistants jobs in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. It also lists 0.06 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 0.3. A value of 1 means Social Science Research Assistants 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.
Local job mix
Social Science Research Assistants beside other roles in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA
The all-occupations median in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA is $48,400 per year. The Social Science Research Assistants median is $36,710 per year. Social Science Research Assistants is 24.2% 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 Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA. 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 Social Science Research Assistants. 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. Retail Salespersons, SOC 41-2031, has a Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA median of $36,720 per year. BLS lists 41,270 jobs and a location quotient of 0.96.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA table, at 102,760 jobs. Social Science Research Assistants has 100 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 1,716,760. 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 Social Science Research Assistants's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 102,760 jobs in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, a gap of 102,660 from Social Science Research Assistants. Its median is $34,320 per year, or $2,390 below Social Science Research Assistants. Its location quotient is 2.16.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA role table, at $133,940 per year. Social Science Research Assistants has $36,710 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $48,400 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 $133,940 per year in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, or $97,230 above Social Science Research Assistants. BLS lists 35,290 jobs, compared with 100 for Social Science Research Assistants. Its location quotient is 0.95.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $102,260 per year in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, or $65,550 above Social Science Research Assistants. BLS lists 23,090 jobs, compared with 100 for Social Science Research Assistants. Its location quotient is 0.6.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA
Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators has the highest location quotient in the bounded Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA role table, at 2.83. Social Science Research Assistants has 0.3. 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 Social Science Research Assistants with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Industrial Truck and Tractor Operators has a location quotient of 2.83 in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, a gap of 2.53 from Social Science Research Assistants. BLS lists 24,180 jobs and a median of $47,850 per year, or $11,140 above Social Science Research Assistants.
2. Substitute Teachers, Short-Term has a location quotient of 2.66 in Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, a gap of 2.36 from Social Science Research Assistants. BLS lists 15,430 jobs and a median of $60,780 per year, or $24,070 above Social Science Research Assistants.
Price-level view
What $36,710 may mean after the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA is 106.4. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 6.4% above that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $36,710 Social Science Research Assistants median by 106.4 divided by 100. The result is $34,488 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 129.3. Goods are 101.4. Utilities are 148.6. Other services are 101.3. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
Data care
How much care to use with the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA row
The employment RSE for this Social Science Research Assistants row is 4.1%. The mean-wage RSE is 5.1%. 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 100 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $53,230 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 Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Social Science Research Assistants. It uses a Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA 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 $36,710 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 Social Science Research Assistants row for Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA 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 100 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.3 is not a growth score. Rank 67 of 72 is not a place score. The 106.4 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 19-4061 in BLS area 40140. 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 100 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.
