Lafayette, LA was 40.2% below the U.S. median for Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. It ranked 386 of 391 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median says in Lafayette, LA
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median in Lafayette, LA at $22,000 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 25-9045 and BLS area 29180.
BLS lists 1,130 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 $25,090 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Lafayette, LA's Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median is 40.2% below the U.S. Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median of $36,780 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 25-9045 and area 29180. SOC 25-9045 names Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. Area 29180 names Lafayette, LA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 25-9045/29180 row reports 1,130 wage and salary jobs, 6.31 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.69 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 25-9045/29180, the annual median is $22,000 per year, while the matching mean is $25,090 per year. The row is annual only. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.

The 10th percentile is $16,710 per year. The 25th percentile is $21,260 per year. The median is $22,000 per year. The 75th percentile is $27,820 per year. The 90th percentile is $36,060 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 $21,260 per year to $27,820 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $19,350. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Lafayette, LA has a annual median of $22,000 per year. Louisiana has $27,400 per year. The U.S. row has $36,780 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Lafayette, LA is 19.7% below Louisiana on the same published median. Lafayette, LA is 40.2% 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 Lafayette, LA sits for Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary
Lafayette, LA ranks 386 of 391 among metro areas with a published annual median for Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 386 of 391 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.
383. Arecibo, PR has a Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median of $22,450 per year, 650 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.05.
384. Lawrence, KS has a Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median of $22,360 per year, 590 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.26.

Pay leaders
Where Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 25-9045, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Mount Vernon-Anacortes, WA has the highest published median in this set, at $57,950 per year. Lafayette, LA sits at $22,000 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary 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. Mount Vernon-Anacortes, WA has a Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median of $57,950 per year, or $35,950 above Lafayette, LA. BLS lists 870 jobs there, compared with 1,130 in Lafayette, LA. The location quotient is 1.82.
2. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA has a Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median of $53,950 per year, or $31,950 above Lafayette, LA. BLS lists 21,040 jobs there, compared with 1,130 in Lafayette, LA. The location quotient is 1.1.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary in this same-source set, at 126,920 jobs. Lafayette, LA has 1,130. 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 126,920 estimated Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary jobs, a gap of 125,790 jobs from Lafayette, LA. Its median is $38,890 per year, or $16,890 above Lafayette, LA. Its location quotient is 1.46.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 53,010 estimated Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary jobs, a gap of 51,880 jobs from Lafayette, LA. Its median is $46,240 per year, or $24,240 above Lafayette, LA. Its location quotient is 0.93.
Local-share leaders
Where Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary takes the largest share of local jobs
Watertown-Fort Drum, NY has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 2.76. Lafayette, LA has 0.69. 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 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary 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. Watertown-Fort Drum, NY has a location quotient of 2.76, a gap of 2.07 from Lafayette, LA. BLS lists 990 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary jobs and a median of $34,190 per year, or $12,190 above Lafayette, LA.
2. Merced, CA has a location quotient of 2.69, a gap of 2.00 from Lafayette, LA. BLS lists 1,950 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary jobs and a median of $44,680 per year, or $22,680 above Lafayette, LA.
Job scale and share
How common Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary is in Lafayette, LA
BLS lists 1,130 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary jobs in Lafayette, LA. It also lists 6.31 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 0.69. A value of 1 means Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary 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.
Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary beside other roles in Lafayette, LA
The all-occupations median in Lafayette, LA is $41,780 per year. The Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median is $22,000 per year. Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary is 47.3% 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 Lafayette, LA. 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 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. 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. Fast Food and Counter Workers, SOC 35-3023, has a Lafayette, LA median of $22,320 per year. BLS lists 4,480 jobs and a location quotient of 1.01.
2. Home Health and Personal Care Aides, SOC 31-1120, has a Lafayette, LA median of $21,400 per year. BLS lists 5,200 jobs and a location quotient of 1.05.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Lafayette, LA
Home Health and Personal Care Aides is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Lafayette, LA table, at 5,200 jobs. Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary has 1,130 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 179,570. 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 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Home Health and Personal Care Aides has 5,200 jobs in Lafayette, LA, a gap of 4,070 from Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. Its median is $21,400 per year, or $600 below Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. Its location quotient is 1.05.

Area pay mix
Published role medians around Lafayette, LA
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Lafayette, LA role table, at $99,510 per year. Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary has $22,000 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $41,780 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 $99,510 per year in Lafayette, LA, or $77,510 above Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. BLS lists 4,590 jobs, compared with 1,130 for Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. Its location quotient is 1.13.
2. Managers, All Other has a median of $88,370 per year in Lafayette, LA, or $66,370 above Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. BLS lists 1,670 jobs, compared with 1,130 for Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. Its location quotient is 2.32.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Lafayette, LA
Welders, Cutters, Solderers, and Brazers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Lafayette, LA role table, at 3.88. Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary has 0.69. 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 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Welders, Cutters, Solderers, and Brazers has a location quotient of 3.88 in Lafayette, LA, a gap of 3.19 from Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. BLS lists 1,860 jobs and a median of $57,750 per year, or $35,750 above Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary.
2. Food Preparation Workers has a location quotient of 3.16 in Lafayette, LA, a gap of 2.47 from Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. BLS lists 3,260 jobs and a median of $22,920 per year, or $920 above Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary.
Price-level view
What $22,000 may mean after the Lafayette, LA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Lafayette, LA is 87.2. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 12.8% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $22,000 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median by 87.2 divided by 100. The result is $25,227 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 58.8. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 71.2. Other services are 95.7. 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 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary row is 0.9%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.6%. 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 1,130 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $25,090 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 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. It uses a Lafayette, LA 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 $22,000 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 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary row for Lafayette, LA 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 1,130 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.69 is not a growth score. Rank 386 of 391 is not a place score. The 87.2 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 25-9045 in BLS area 29180. 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 1,130 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.
