North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area was 10.1% below the U.S. median for Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. It ranked 84 of 131 nonmetro areas. We rank only areas with a published annual median. These pay gaps leave out prices, benefits, and skills. They also leave out the mix of firms and work hours.
What the Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median says in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area at $58,560 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 25-2052 and BLS area 4800002.
BLS lists 1,810 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 $56,930 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area's Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median is 10.1% below the U.S. Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median of $65,120 on the same published median. Both values use the same job code and source date. They do not account for prices, taxes, benefits, hours, or your work history.
Exact source record
Read source key 25-2052 with area 4800002
This page exists because the BLS artifact has one row for SOC 25-2052 and area 4800002. SOC 25-2052 names Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. Area 4800002 names North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 25-2052/4800002 row has 1,810 wage and salary jobs. There are 6.56 for each 1,000 local jobs. The location quotient is 3.91. Each value stays under the same job and area codes.
For 25-2052/4800002, the annual median is $58,560 per year, while the matching mean is $56,930 per year. The row is annual only. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

Same-source checks
Compare North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $58,560 per year. Texas has $62,330 per year. The U.S. row has $65,120 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area is 6.0% below Texas on the same published median. North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area is 10.1% 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 benchmarks, 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 North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area sits for Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School
North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area ranks 84 of 131 among nonmetro areas with a published annual median for Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 84 of 131 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.
81. East North Dakota nonmetropolitan area. The Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median is $58,790 per year. BLS estimates Not published jobs. The location quotient is Not published.
82. Northeast Iowa nonmetropolitan area. The Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median is $58,690 per year. BLS estimates 210 jobs. The location quotient is 1.29.
83. South Central Kentucky nonmetropolitan area. The Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median is $58,580 per year. BLS estimates 460 jobs. The location quotient is 1.59.
Pay leaders
Where Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 25-2052, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. North Coast Region of California nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $96,990 per year. North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area sits at $58,560 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School 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 limits, and the exact BEA price row when present. A missing median stays out of this rank instead of becoming zero.
1. North Coast Region of California nonmetropolitan area has a Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median of $96,990 per year, or $38,430 above North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 290 jobs there, compared with 1,810 in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 1.57.
2. North Valley-Northern Mountains Region of California nonmetropolitan area has a Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median of $96,990 per year, or $38,430 above North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 190 jobs there, compared with 1,810 in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 1.07.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School jobs
North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School in this same-source set, at 1,810 jobs. North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has 1,810. 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. North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has 1,810 estimated Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School jobs, a gap of 0 jobs from North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $58,560 per year, or $0 above North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 3.91.
2. Hill Country Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has 1,170 estimated Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School jobs, a gap of 640 jobs from North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $58,810 per year, or $250 above North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 3.48.
Local-share leaders
Where Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School takes the largest share of local jobs
Border Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 5.51. North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has 3.91. 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 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School 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. Border Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 5.51, a gap of 1.60 from North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 430 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School jobs and a median of $61,460 per year, or $2,900 above North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area.
2. Eastern Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 4.83, a gap of 0.92 from North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 930 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School jobs and a median of $59,770 per year, or $1,210 above North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area.
Job scale and share
How common Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School is in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists 1,810 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School jobs in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. It also lists 6.56 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 3.91. A value of 1 means Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School 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
Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School beside other roles in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
The all-occupations median in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area is $44,180 per year. The Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School median is $58,560 per year. Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School is 32.5% 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 North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan 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 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. 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. Elementary School Teachers, Except Special Education, SOC 25-2021, has a North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area median of $59,560 per year. BLS lists 2,940 jobs and a location quotient of 1.19.
2. Middle School Teachers, Except Special and Career/Technical Education, SOC 25-2022, has a North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area median of $59,620 per year. BLS lists 2,290 jobs and a location quotient of 2.09.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area table, at 12,240 jobs. Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School has 1,810 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 275,670. 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 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 12,240 jobs in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 10,430 from Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. Its median is $23,560 per year, or $35,000 below Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. Its location quotient is 1.79.
2. General and Operations Managers has 8,520 jobs in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 6,710 from Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. Its median is $80,820 per year, or $22,260 above Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. Its location quotient is 1.37.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area role table, at $81,480 per year. Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School has $58,560 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $44,180 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 $81,480 per year in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, or $22,920 above Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. BLS lists 4,390 jobs, compared with 1,810 for Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. Its location quotient is 0.73.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $80,820 per year in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, or $22,260 above Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. BLS lists 8,520 jobs, compared with 1,810 for Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. Its location quotient is 1.37.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area
Correctional Officers and Jailers has the highest location quotient in the bounded North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area role table, at 4.69. Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School has 3.91. 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 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Correctional Officers and Jailers has a location quotient of 4.69 in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 0.78 from Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. BLS lists 3,170 jobs and a median of $52,670 per year, or $5,890 below Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School.
2. Welders, Cutters, Solderers, and Brazers has a location quotient of 3.66 in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 0.25 from Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. BLS lists 2,700 jobs and a median of $48,430 per year, or $10,130 below Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School.
Price-level view
What $58,560 may mean after the North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $58,560 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 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School 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 North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School row is 5.2%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.7%. 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 1,810 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $56,930 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 North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School. It uses a North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan 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 $58,560 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 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School row for North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan 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 1,810 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 3.91 is not a growth score. Rank 84 of 131 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 25-2052 in BLS area 4800002. 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 Special Education Teachers, Kindergarten and Elementary School jobs does BLS estimate in North Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area?
BLS estimates 1,810 wage and salary jobs for this row. This is a survey estimate. It does not count open jobs or predict future hiring.
Are the current job listings included in the BLS wage calculation?
No. We show job posts in a separate list. Each has its own source and check date. Posted pay does not change the BLS pay data.
