Where Youngstown-Warren, OH sits for Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary

Youngstown-Warren, OH ranks 279 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 279 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.

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. Youngstown-Warren, OH sits at $29,940 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.

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.

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.

What $29,940 may mean after the Youngstown-Warren, OH price level

BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Youngstown-Warren, OH is 87.4. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 12.6% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.

WageScope divides the $29,940 Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary median by 87.4 divided by 100. The result is $34,259 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 53.4. Goods are 93.6. Utilities are 96.3. Other services are 98.9. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.

How much care to use with the Youngstown-Warren, OH row

The employment RSE for this Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary row is 3.9%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.8%. 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 1,780 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $32,100 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 Youngstown-Warren, OH wage data before you tailor

The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Teaching Assistants, Except Postsecondary. It uses a Youngstown-Warren, OH 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 $29,940 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 Youngstown-Warren, OH 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 1,780 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 1.22 is not a growth score. Rank 279 of 391 is not a place score. The 87.4 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 49660. 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.
