Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV was 21.6% above the U.S. median for Soil and Plant Scientists. It ranked 13 of 82 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Soil and Plant Scientists median says in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Soil and Plant Scientists median in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV at $95,870 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 19-1013 and BLS area 47900.
BLS lists 230 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 $107,020 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 Soil and Plant Scientists median is 21.6% above the U.S. Soil and Plant Scientists median of $78,850 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 19-1013 with area 47900
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 19-1013 and area 47900. SOC 19-1013 names Soil and Plant Scientists. Area 47900 names Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 19-1013/47900 row reports 230 wage and salary jobs, 0.07 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.73 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 19-1013/47900, the annual median is $95,870 per year, while the matching mean is $107,020 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

Like-for-like rank
Where Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV sits for Soil and Plant Scientists
Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV ranks 13 of 82 among metro areas with a published annual median for Soil and Plant Scientists. 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 82 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.
10. Kennewick-Richland, WA has a Soil and Plant Scientists median of $99,110 per year, 40 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 3.42.
11. Sacramento-Roseville-Folsom, CA has a Soil and Plant Scientists median of $98,340 per year, 190 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.72.

Pay leaders
Where Soil and Plant Scientists medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 19-1013, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA has the highest published median in this set, at $132,290 per year. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV sits at $95,870 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Soil and Plant Scientists 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. Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA has a Soil and Plant Scientists median of $132,290 per year, or $36,420 above Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. BLS lists 430 jobs there, compared with 230 in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. The location quotient is 10.57.
2. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Soil and Plant Scientists median of $116,660 per year, or $20,790 above Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. BLS lists 70 jobs there, compared with 230 in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. The location quotient is 0.57.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Soil and Plant Scientists jobs
Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA has the largest published metro job estimate for Soil and Plant Scientists in this same-source set, at 430 jobs. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has 230. 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. Des Moines-West Des Moines, IA has 430 estimated Soil and Plant Scientists jobs, a gap of 200 jobs from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Its median is $132,290 per year, or $36,420 above Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Its location quotient is 10.57.
2. Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI has 400 estimated Soil and Plant Scientists jobs, a gap of 170 jobs from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Its median is $79,610 per year, or $16,260 below Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. Its location quotient is 2.03.
Local-share leaders
Where Soil and Plant Scientists takes the largest share of local jobs
Ames, IA has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 23.82. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has 0.73. 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 Soil and Plant Scientists 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. Ames, IA has a location quotient of 23.82, a gap of 23.09 from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. BLS lists 130 Soil and Plant Scientists jobs and a median of $65,080 per year, or $30,790 below Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV.
2. Corvallis, OR has a location quotient of 19.98, a gap of 19.25 from Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. BLS lists 80 Soil and Plant Scientists jobs and a median of $81,420 per year, or $14,450 below Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV.
Job scale and share
How common Soil and Plant Scientists is in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV
BLS lists 230 Soil and Plant Scientists jobs in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV. It also lists 0.07 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 0.73. A value of 1 means Soil and Plant Scientists 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
Soil and Plant Scientists 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 Soil and Plant Scientists median is $95,870 per year. Soil and Plant Scientists is 34.9% 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 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 Soil and Plant Scientists. 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. Human Resources Specialists, SOC 13-1071, has a Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV median of $100,830 per year. BLS lists 24,450 jobs and a location quotient of 1.33.

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. Soil and Plant Scientists has 230 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 Soil and Plant Scientists'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 112,300 from Soil and Plant Scientists. Its median is $156,460 per year, or $60,590 above Soil and Plant Scientists. 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. Soil and Plant Scientists has $95,870 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 $99,320 above Soil and Plant Scientists. BLS lists 46,840 jobs, compared with 230 for Soil and Plant Scientists. Its location quotient is 3.08.

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. Soil and Plant Scientists has 0.73. 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 Soil and Plant Scientists 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 2.76 from Soil and Plant Scientists. BLS lists 76,600 jobs and a median of $104,770 per year, or $8,900 above Soil and Plant Scientists.
2. Management Analysts has a location quotient of 3.44 in Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV, a gap of 2.71 from Soil and Plant Scientists. BLS lists 62,360 jobs and a median of $126,830 per year, or $30,960 above Soil and Plant Scientists.
Price-level view
What $95,870 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 $95,870 Soil and Plant Scientists median by 108.9 divided by 100. The result is $88,048 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.
Data care
How much care to use with the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV row
The employment RSE for this Soil and Plant Scientists row is 6.3%. 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 230 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $107,020 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 Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Soil and Plant Scientists. 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. Listings can change between visits while the survey figures stay tied to their release date. A listing range does not replace the $95,870 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 Soil and Plant Scientists 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 230 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.73 is not a growth score. Rank 13 of 82 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 19-1013 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 230 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.
