West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area was 16.1% below the U.S. median for Tellers. It ranked 97 of 135 nonmetro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Tellers median says in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Tellers median in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area at $36,120 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 43-3071 and BLS area 1700002.
BLS lists 1,110 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 $37,640 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area's Tellers median is 16.1% below the U.S. Tellers median of $43,030 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 43-3071 and area 1700002. SOC 43-3071 names Tellers. Area 1700002 names West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 43-3071/1700002 row reports 1,110 wage and salary jobs, 6.57 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 3.1 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 43-3071/1700002, the annual median is $36,120 per year, while the matching mean is $37,640 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
43-3071/1700002 10th percentile: $31,540 per year.
43-3071/1700002 25th percentile: $34,290 per year.
43-3071/1700002 median: $36,120 per year.
43-3071/1700002 75th percentile: $37,950 per year.
43-3071/1700002 90th percentile: $46,760 per year.
Area 1700002 reports 169,470 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $56,420. Its annual median is $46,220. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.5%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 43-3071 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area runs from $31,200 at the 10th percentile to $93,590 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $35,360. The median is $46,220. The 75th percentile is $63,400. This is a place check, not a pay range for Tellers.
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 1700002. They do not show related skills or a path into Tellers.
1. Area 1700002, SOC 41-2011, Cashiers: 5,530 jobs, $31,200 annual median, 32.62 jobs per 1,000, and 1.64 location quotient.
2. Area 1700002, SOC 53-3032, Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers: 4,480 jobs, $48,910 annual median, 26.42 jobs per 1,000, and 1.99 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area wage ladder for Tellers
The 10th percentile is $31,540 per year. The 25th percentile is $34,290 per year. The median is $36,120 per year. The 75th percentile is $37,950 per year. The 90th percentile is $46,760 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 $34,290 per year to $37,950 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $15,220. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Compare West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area with its state and the U.S.
West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area has a annual median of $36,120 per year. Illinois has $38,670 per year. The U.S. row has $43,030 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area is 6.6% below Illinois on the same published median. West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area is 16.1% 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 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 West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area sits for Tellers
West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area ranks 97 of 135 among nonmetro areas with a published annual median for Tellers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 97 of 135 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.
94. Kansas nonmetropolitan area has a Tellers median of $36,220 per year, 1,760 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 2.22.
95. Eastern New Mexico nonmetropolitan area has a Tellers median of $36,170 per year, 570 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.61.
96. North Northeastern Ohio nonmetropolitan area (noncontiguous) has a Tellers median of $36,130 per year, 950 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.82.
98. Eastern Region of Texas nonmetropolitan area has a Tellers median of $36,110 per year, 450 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.87.
Pay leaders
Where Tellers medians lead among nonmetro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 43-3071, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same nonmetro map type. Northwest Colorado nonmetropolitan area has the highest published median in this set, at $48,180 per year. West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area sits at $36,120 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Tellers 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. Northwest Colorado nonmetropolitan area has a Tellers median of $48,180 per year, or $12,060 above West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 280 jobs there, compared with 1,110 in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 0.99.
2. Massachusetts nonmetropolitan area has a Tellers median of $47,610 per year, or $11,490 above West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 120 jobs there, compared with 1,110 in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. The location quotient is 1.35.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Tellers jobs
Kansas nonmetropolitan area has the largest published nonmetro job estimate for Tellers in this same-source set, at 1,760 jobs. West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area has 1,110. 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. Kansas nonmetropolitan area has 1,760 estimated Tellers jobs, a gap of 650 jobs from West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $36,220 per year, or $100 above West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 2.22.
2. West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area has 1,110 estimated Tellers jobs, a gap of 0 jobs from West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. Its median is $36,120 per year, or $0 above West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. Its location quotient is 3.1.
Local-share leaders
Where Tellers takes the largest share of local jobs
Southwest Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area has the highest published location quotient in this nonmetro set, at 3.92. West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area has 3.1. 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 Tellers 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 Oklahoma nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 3.92, a gap of 0.82 from West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 520 Tellers jobs and a median of $29,580 per year, or $6,540 below West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area.
2. Northwest Nebraska nonmetropolitan area has a location quotient of 3.36, a gap of 0.26 from West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. BLS lists 280 Tellers jobs and a median of $38,470 per year, or $2,350 above West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area.
Job scale and share
How common Tellers is in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area
BLS lists 1,110 Tellers jobs in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. It also lists 6.57 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 3.1. A value of 1 means Tellers 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.
Tellers beside other roles in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area
The all-occupations median in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area is $46,220 per year. The Tellers median is $36,120 per year. Tellers is 21.9% 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 West Central Illinois 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 Tellers. 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. Janitors and Cleaners, Except Maids and Housekeeping Cleaners, SOC 37-2011, has a West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area median of $36,100 per year. BLS lists 2,350 jobs and a location quotient of 0.98.
2. Home Health and Personal Care Aides, SOC 31-1120, has a West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area median of $36,720 per year. BLS lists 3,130 jobs and a location quotient of 0.67.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area
Cashiers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area table, at 5,530 jobs. Tellers has 1,110 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 169,470. 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 Tellers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Cashiers has 5,530 jobs in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 4,420 from Tellers. Its median is $31,200 per year, or $4,920 below Tellers. Its location quotient is 1.64.
2. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers has 4,480 jobs in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 3,370 from Tellers. Its median is $48,910 per year, or $12,790 above Tellers. Its location quotient is 1.99.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area
General and Operations Managers has the highest published median in the bounded West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area role table, at $81,690 per year. Tellers has $36,120 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $46,220 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 $81,690 per year in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area, or $45,570 above Tellers. BLS lists 4,120 jobs, compared with 1,110 for Tellers. Its location quotient is 1.08.
2. Registered Nurses has a median of $79,880 per year in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area, or $43,760 above Tellers. BLS lists 3,880 jobs, compared with 1,110 for Tellers. Its location quotient is 1.05.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area
Highway Maintenance Workers has the highest location quotient in the bounded West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area role table, at 8.05. Tellers has 3.1. 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 Tellers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Highway Maintenance Workers has a location quotient of 8.05 in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 4.95 from Tellers. BLS lists 1,360 jobs and a median of $49,070 per year, or $12,950 above Tellers.
2. Correctional Officers and Jailers has a location quotient of 5.38 in West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area, a gap of 2.28 from Tellers. BLS lists 2,230 jobs and a median of $79,190 per year, or $43,070 above Tellers.
Price-level view
What $36,120 may mean after the West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area price level
WageScope has no exact approved 2024 BEA price row for West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area. It does not use a nearby place or a broad state value as a stand-in. The $36,120 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 Tellers 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 West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area row
The employment RSE for this Tellers row is 5%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.6%. 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 1,110 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $37,640 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 West Central Illinois nonmetropolitan area wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Tellers. It uses a West Central Illinois 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 $36,120 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 Tellers row for West Central Illinois 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 1,110 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 3.1 is not a growth score. Rank 97 of 135 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 43-3071 in BLS area 1700002. 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 1,110 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.
