What the Statistical Assistants median says in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Statistical Assistants median in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area at $48,510 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 43-9111 and BLS area 2300002.
BLS lists 30 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 $54,010 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area's Statistical Assistants median is 3.6% below the U.S. Statistical Assistants median of $50,330 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 43-9111 and area 2300002. SOC 43-9111 names Statistical Assistants. Area 2300002 names Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 43-9111/2300002 row reports 30 wage and salary jobs, 0.21 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 6.96 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 43-9111/2300002, the annual median is $48,510 per year, while the matching mean is $54,010 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

Compare Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $48,510 per year. Maine has $48,050 per year. The U.S. row has $50,330 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area is 1.0% above Maine on the same published median. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area is 3.6% 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.
Where Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area sits for Statistical Assistants
Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area ranks 1 of 1 among nonmetro areas with a published annual median for Statistical 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 1 of 1 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.
Where Statistical Assistants medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 43-9111, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $48,510 per year. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area sits at $48,510 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Statistical 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. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has a Statistical Assistants median of $48,510 per year, or $0 above Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 30 jobs there, compared with 30 in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 6.96.
Where BLS counts the most Statistical Assistants jobs
Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Statistical Assistants in this same-source set, at 30 jobs. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has 30. 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. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has 30 estimated Statistical Assistants jobs, a gap of 0 jobs from Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $48,510 per year, or $0 above Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 6.96.
Where Statistical Assistants takes the largest share of local jobs
Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 6.96. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has 6.96. 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 Statistical 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. Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 6.96, a gap of 0.00 from Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 30 Statistical Assistants jobs and a median of $48,510 per year, or $0 above Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area.
How common Statistical Assistants is in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists 30 Statistical Assistants jobs in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area. It also lists 0.21 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 6.96. A value of 1 means Statistical Assistants 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.
Statistical Assistants beside other roles in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area
The all-occupations median in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area is $49,000 per year. The Statistical Assistants median is $48,510 per year. Statistical Assistants is 1.0% 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 Southwest Maine 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 Statistical 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. Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Auditing Clerks, SOC 43-3031, has a Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area median of $48,360 per year. BLS lists 1,690 jobs and a location quotient of 1.34.
2. Customer Service Representatives, SOC 43-4051, has a Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area median of $48,840 per year. BLS lists 1,930 jobs and a location quotient of 0.81.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area
Retail Salespersons is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area table, at 4,370 jobs. Statistical Assistants has 30 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 142,140. 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 Statistical Assistants's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Retail Salespersons has 4,370 jobs in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 4,340 from Statistical Assistants. Its median is $35,900 per year, or $12,610 below Statistical Assistants. Its location quotient is 1.23.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area role table, at $93,040 per year. Statistical Assistants has $48,510 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $49,000 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 $93,040 per year in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area, or $44,530 above Statistical Assistants. BLS lists 3,730 jobs, compared with 30 for Statistical Assistants. Its location quotient is 1.21.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $92,310 per year in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area, or $43,800 above Statistical Assistants. BLS lists 2,990 jobs, compared with 30 for Statistical Assistants. Its location quotient is 0.93.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area
Childcare Workers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area role table, at 2.37. Statistical Assistants has 6.96. 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 Statistical Assistants with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Childcare Workers has a location quotient of 2.37 in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 4.59 from Statistical Assistants. BLS lists 1,130 jobs and a median of $35,660 per year, or $12,850 below Statistical Assistants.
2. Carpenters has a location quotient of 2.17 in Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 4.79 from Statistical Assistants. BLS lists 1,330 jobs and a median of $60,640 per year, or $12,130 above Statistical Assistants.
Price-level view
What $48,510 may mean after the Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $48,510 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 Statistical Assistants 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.
How much care to use with the Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Statistical Assistants row is 8.3%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.2%. 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 30 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $54,010 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 Southwest Maine nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Statistical Assistants. It uses a Southwest Maine 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 $48,510 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 Statistical Assistants row for Southwest Maine 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 30 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 6.96 is not a growth score. Rank 1 of 1 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 43-9111 in BLS area 2300002. 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 30 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.
