WageScope divides the published Technical Writers median by the BEA all-items index. This is a price-level comparison, not take-home pay, a personal budget, or a quality-of-life score.
Use the local pay range, same-source bench marks, job scale, price level, and survey care marks as separate facts. This guide stays tied to SOC 27-3042 and BLS area 20220.

2.1%
Dubuque, IA was 36.5% below the U.S. median for Technical Writers. It ranked 135 of 136 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Technical Writers median says in Dubuque, IA
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Technical Writers median in Dubuque, IA at $57,400 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 27-3042 and BLS area 20220.
BLS lists 70 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 $67,330 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Dubuque, IA's Technical Writers median is 36.5% below the U.S. Technical Writers median of $90,390 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 27-3042 and area 20220. SOC 27-3042 names Technical Writers. Area 20220 names Dubuque, IA. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 27-3042/20220 row reports 70 wage and salary jobs, 1.2 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 4.11 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 27-3042/20220, the annual median is $57,400 per year, while the matching mean is $67,330 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 20220 facts behind this Technical Writers page
Area 20220 reports 58,470 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $60,370. Its annual median is $48,750. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.7%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 27-3042 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Dubuque, IA runs from $29,300 at the 10th percentile to $103,000 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $36,950. The median is $48,750. The 75th percentile is $71,780. This is a place check, not a pay range for Technical Writers.
The source rows below are the six largest detailed roles in the bounded area file. Each keeps its own SOC code. They help a reader spot-check area 20220. They do not show related skills or a path into Technical Writers.
1. Area 20220, SOC 43-4051, Customer Service Representatives: 1,880 jobs, $46,670 annual median, 32.09 jobs per 1,000, and 1.92 location quotient.
2. Area 20220, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 1,810 jobs, $30,960 annual median, 30.88 jobs per 1,000, and 1.23 location quotient.
3. Area 20220, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 1,600 jobs, $28,680 annual median, 27.3 jobs per 1,000, and 1.1 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Dubuque, IA wage ladder for Technical Writers
The 10th percentile is $52,750 per year. The 25th percentile is $52,750 per year. The median is $57,400 per year. The 75th percentile is $83,590 per year. The 90th percentile is $88,530 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 $52,750 per year to $83,590 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $35,780. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Dubuque, IA has a annual median of $57,400 per year. Iowa has $66,520 per year. The U.S. row has $90,390 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Dubuque, IA is 13.7% below Iowa on the same published median. Dubuque, IA is 36.5% 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.
Dubuque, IA ranks 135 of 136 among metro areas with a published annual median for Technical Writers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 135 of 136 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.
132. Little Rock-North Little Rock-Conway, AR has a Technical Writers median of $61,860 per year, 80 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.72.
133. Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers, AR has a Technical Writers median of $61,180 per year, Not published estimated jobs, and a location quotient of Not published.
134. Fort Wayne, IN has a Technical Writers median of $60,480 per year, 40 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.56.
136. San Juan-Bayamon-Caguas, PR has a Technical Writers median of $46,950 per year, 50 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.26.
Pay leaders
Where Technical Writers medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 27-3042, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has the highest published median in this set, at $140,700 per year. Dubuque, IA sits at $57,400 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Technical Writers 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. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Technical Writers median of $140,700 per year, or $83,300 above Dubuque, IA. BLS lists 920 jobs there, compared with 70 in Dubuque, IA. The location quotient is 2.78.
2. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a Technical Writers median of $135,470 per year, or $78,070 above Dubuque, IA. BLS lists 1,020 jobs there, compared with 70 in Dubuque, IA. The location quotient is 1.46.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Technical Writers jobs
Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has the largest published metro job estimate for Technical Writers in this same-source set, at 2,370 jobs. Dubuque, IA has 70. 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. Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV has 2,370 estimated Technical Writers jobs, a gap of 2,300 jobs from Dubuque, IA. Its median is $99,910 per year, or $42,510 above Dubuque, IA. Its location quotient is 2.58.
2. New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has 2,170 estimated Technical Writers jobs, a gap of 2,100 jobs from Dubuque, IA. Its median is $111,050 per year, or $53,650 above Dubuque, IA. Its location quotient is 0.78.
Local-share leaders
Where Technical Writers takes the largest share of local jobs
Huntsville, AL has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 4.41. Dubuque, IA has 4.11. 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 Technical Writers 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. Huntsville, AL has a location quotient of 4.41, a gap of 0.30 from Dubuque, IA. BLS lists 340 Technical Writers jobs and a median of $96,470 per year, or $39,070 above Dubuque, IA.
2. Dubuque, IA has a location quotient of 4.11, a gap of 0.00 from Dubuque, IA. BLS lists 70 Technical Writers jobs and a median of $57,400 per year, or $0 above Dubuque, IA.
3. Durham-Chapel Hill, NC has a location quotient of 3.9, a gap of 0.21 from Dubuque, IA. BLS lists 390 Technical Writers jobs and a median of $94,520 per year, or $37,120 above Dubuque, IA.
Job scale and share
How common Technical Writers is in Dubuque, IA
BLS lists 70 Technical Writers jobs in Dubuque, IA. It also lists 1.2 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 4.11. A value of 1 means Technical Writers 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.
Technical Writers beside other roles in Dubuque, IA
The all-occupations median in Dubuque, IA is $48,750 per year. The Technical Writers median is $57,400 per year. Technical Writers is 17.7% 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 Dubuque, IA. 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 Technical Writers. 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 Dubuque, IA median of $57,840 per year. BLS lists 560 jobs and a location quotient of 1.08.
2. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers, SOC 53-3032, has a Dubuque, IA median of $58,470 per year. BLS lists 1,310 jobs and a location quotient of 1.69.
3. Maintenance and Repair Workers, General, SOC 49-9071, has a Dubuque, IA median of $54,360 per year. BLS lists 570 jobs and a location quotient of 0.99.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Dubuque, IA
Customer Service Representatives is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Dubuque, IA table, at 1,880 jobs. Technical Writers has 70 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 58,470. 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 Technical Writers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Customer Service Representatives has 1,880 jobs in Dubuque, IA, a gap of 1,810 from Technical Writers. Its median is $46,670 per year, or $10,730 below Technical Writers. Its location quotient is 1.92.
2. Retail Salespersons has 1,810 jobs in Dubuque, IA, a gap of 1,740 from Technical Writers. Its median is $30,960 per year, or $26,440 below Technical Writers. Its location quotient is 1.23.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Dubuque, IA
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded Dubuque, IA role table, at $92,530 per year. Technical Writers has $57,400 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $48,750 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 $92,530 per year in Dubuque, IA, or $35,130 above Technical Writers. BLS lists 1,170 jobs, compared with 70 for Technical Writers. Its location quotient is 0.89.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Production and Operating Workers has a median of $77,130 per year in Dubuque, IA, or $19,730 above Technical Writers. BLS lists 480 jobs, compared with 70 for Technical Writers. Its location quotient is 1.91.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Dubuque, IA
Customer Service Representatives has the highest location quotient in the bounded Dubuque, IA role table, at 1.92. Technical Writers has 4.11. 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 Technical Writers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Customer Service Representatives has a location quotient of 1.92 in Dubuque, IA, a gap of 2.19 from Technical Writers. BLS lists 1,880 jobs and a median of $46,670 per year, or $10,730 below Technical Writers.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Production and Operating Workers has a location quotient of 1.91 in Dubuque, IA, a gap of 2.20 from Technical Writers. BLS lists 480 jobs and a median of $77,130 per year, or $19,730 above Technical Writers.
3. Nursing Assistants has a location quotient of 1.85 in Dubuque, IA, a gap of 2.26 from Technical Writers. BLS lists 1,010 jobs and a median of $41,580 per year, or $15,820 below Technical Writers.
Price-level view
What $57,400 may mean after the Dubuque, IA price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Dubuque, IA is 87.3. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 12.7% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $57,400 Technical Writers median by 87.3 divided by 100. The result is $65,729 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 64.0. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 81.2. Other services are 92.9. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
The employment RSE for this Technical Writers row is 5.3%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.9%. 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 70 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $67,330 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 Technical Writers. It uses a Dubuque, IA 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 $57,400 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 Technical Writers row for Dubuque, IA 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 70 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 4.11 is not a growth score. Rank 135 of 136 is not a place score. The 87.3 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 27-3042 in BLS area 20220. 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 70 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.
