What the Tire Repairers and Changers median says in Kentucky
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Tire Repairers and Changers median in Kentucky at $36,300 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 49-3093 and BLS area 21.
BLS lists 1,270 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 $37,070 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Kentucky's Tire Repairers and Changers median is 3.7% below the U.S. Tire Repairers and Changers median of $37,710 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 49-3093 and area 21. SOC 49-3093 names Tire Repairers and Changers. Area 21 names Kentucky. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 49-3093/21 row reports 1,270 wage and salary jobs, 0.63 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 0.91 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 49-3093/21, the annual median is $36,300 per year, while the matching mean is $37,070 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 21 facts behind this Tire Repairers and Changers page
Area 21 reports 2,000,360 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $58,990. Its annual median is $46,920. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.3%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 49-3093 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Kentucky runs from $27,970 at the 10th percentile to $98,380 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $35,410. The median is $46,920. The 75th percentile is $66,760. This is a place check, not a pay range for Tire Repairers and Changers.
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 21. They do not show related skills or a path into Tire Repairers and Changers.
1. Area 21, SOC 53-7062, Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand: 57,930 jobs, $42,770 annual median, 28.96 jobs per 1,000, and 1.53 location quotient.
2. Area 21, SOC 11-1021, General and Operations Managers: 52,100 jobs, $79,370 annual median, 26.04 jobs per 1,000, and 1.16 location quotient.
3. Area 21, SOC 41-2031, Retail Salespersons: 51,250 jobs, $29,650 annual median, 25.62 jobs per 1,000, and 1.02 location quotient.
Pay range
Read the Kentucky wage ladder for Tire Repairers and Changers
The 10th percentile is $28,690 per year. The 25th percentile is $30,140 per year. The median is $36,300 per year. The 75th percentile is $41,180 per year. The 90th percentile is $46,890 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 $30,140 per year to $41,180 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $18,200. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Kentucky has a annual median of $36,300 per year. No exact state row is linked for this area. The U.S. row has $37,710 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
A state comparison is not available for Kentucky. Kentucky is 3.7% 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 Kentucky sits for Tire Repairers and Changers
Kentucky ranks 36 of 52 among states and territories with a published annual median for Tire Repairers and Changers. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 36 of 52 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.
33. Tennessee has a Tire Repairers and Changers median of $36,680 per year, 2,770 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.21.
34. Nebraska has a Tire Repairers and Changers median of $36,590 per year, 910 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.28.
35. Wyoming has a Tire Repairers and Changers median of $36,370 per year, 250 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.26.
37. Texas has a Tire Repairers and Changers median of $36,060 per year, 14,170 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.44.
Pay leaders
Where Tire Repairers and Changers medians lead among states and territories
The rows below use the same SOC 49-3093, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same state map type. Oregon has the highest published median in this set, at $47,650 per year. Kentucky sits at $36,300 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Tire Repairers and Changers 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. Oregon has a Tire Repairers and Changers median of $47,650 per year, or $11,350 above Kentucky. BLS lists 2,260 jobs there, compared with 1,270 in Kentucky. The location quotient is 1.65.
2. Delaware has a Tire Repairers and Changers median of $46,630 per year, or $10,330 above Kentucky. BLS lists 230 jobs there, compared with 1,270 in Kentucky. The location quotient is 0.68.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Tire Repairers and Changers jobs
Texas has the largest published state job estimate for Tire Repairers and Changers in this same-source set, at 14,170 jobs. Kentucky has 1,270. 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. Texas has 14,170 estimated Tire Repairers and Changers jobs, a gap of 12,900 jobs from Kentucky. Its median is $36,060 per year, or $240 below Kentucky. Its location quotient is 1.44.
2. California has 11,620 estimated Tire Repairers and Changers jobs, a gap of 10,350 jobs from Kentucky. Its median is $39,680 per year, or $3,380 above Kentucky. Its location quotient is 0.92.
3. Florida has 6,960 estimated Tire Repairers and Changers jobs, a gap of 5,690 jobs from Kentucky. Its median is $34,010 per year, or $2,290 below Kentucky. Its location quotient is 1.
Local-share leaders
Where Tire Repairers and Changers takes the largest share of local jobs
Montana has the highest published location quotient in this state set, at 2.08. Kentucky has 0.91. 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 Tire Repairers and Changers 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. Montana has a location quotient of 2.08, a gap of 1.17 from Kentucky. BLS lists 740 Tire Repairers and Changers jobs and a median of $46,360 per year, or $10,060 above Kentucky.
2. Alaska has a location quotient of 1.98, a gap of 1.07 from Kentucky. BLS lists 450 Tire Repairers and Changers jobs and a median of $43,330 per year, or $7,030 above Kentucky.
3. New Mexico has a location quotient of 1.95, a gap of 1.04 from Kentucky. BLS lists 1,190 Tire Repairers and Changers jobs and a median of $31,640 per year, or $4,660 below Kentucky.
Job scale and share
How common Tire Repairers and Changers is in Kentucky
BLS lists 1,270 Tire Repairers and Changers jobs in Kentucky. It also lists 0.63 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 0.91. A value of 1 means Tire Repairers and Changers 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.
Tire Repairers and Changers beside other roles in Kentucky
The all-occupations median in Kentucky is $46,920 per year. The Tire Repairers and Changers median is $36,300 per year. Tire Repairers and Changers is 22.6% 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 Kentucky. 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 Tire Repairers and Changers. 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. Home Health and Personal Care Aides, SOC 31-1120, has a Kentucky median of $36,440 per year. BLS lists 31,260 jobs and a location quotient of 0.56.
2. First-Line Supervisors of Food Preparation and Serving Workers, SOC 35-1012, has a Kentucky median of $35,810 per year. BLS lists 18,010 jobs and a location quotient of 1.14.
3. Stockers and Order Fillers, SOC 53-7065, has a Kentucky median of $36,810 per year. BLS lists 47,730 jobs and a location quotient of 1.31.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Kentucky
Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Kentucky table, at 57,930 jobs. Tire Repairers and Changers has 1,270 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 2,000,360. 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 Tire Repairers and Changers's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Laborers and Freight, Stock, and Material Movers, Hand has 57,930 jobs in Kentucky, a gap of 56,660 from Tire Repairers and Changers. Its median is $42,770 per year, or $6,470 above Tire Repairers and Changers. Its location quotient is 1.53.
2. General and Operations Managers has 52,100 jobs in Kentucky, a gap of 50,830 from Tire Repairers and Changers. Its median is $79,370 per year, or $43,070 above Tire Repairers and Changers. Its location quotient is 1.16.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Kentucky
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Kentucky role table, at $81,040 per year. Tire Repairers and Changers has $36,300 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $46,920 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 $81,040 per year in Kentucky, or $44,740 above Tire Repairers and Changers. BLS lists 50,300 jobs, compared with 1,270 for Tire Repairers and Changers. Its location quotient is 1.16.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $79,370 per year in Kentucky, or $43,070 above Tire Repairers and Changers. BLS lists 52,100 jobs, compared with 1,270 for Tire Repairers and Changers. Its location quotient is 1.16.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Kentucky
Cooks, Fast Food has the highest location quotient in the bounded Kentucky role table, at 2.64. Tire Repairers and Changers has 0.91. 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 Tire Repairers and Changers with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Cooks, Fast Food has a location quotient of 2.64 in Kentucky, a gap of 1.73 from Tire Repairers and Changers. BLS lists 21,750 jobs and a median of $23,500 per year, or $12,800 below Tire Repairers and Changers.
2. Miscellaneous Assemblers and Fabricators has a location quotient of 2.62 in Kentucky, a gap of 1.71 from Tire Repairers and Changers. BLS lists 47,320 jobs and a median of $47,950 per year, or $11,650 above Tire Repairers and Changers.
3. Medical Secretaries and Administrative Assistants has a location quotient of 2.14 in Kentucky, a gap of 1.23 from Tire Repairers and Changers. BLS lists 26,430 jobs and a median of $38,750 per year, or $2,450 above Tire Repairers and Changers.
Price-level view
What $36,300 may mean after the Kentucky price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Kentucky is 90.2. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 9.8% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $36,300 Tire Repairers and Changers median by 90.2 divided by 100. The result is $40,262 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 64.3. Goods are 96.0. Utilities are 75.3. Other services are 97.3. 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 Tire Repairers and Changers row is 13.8%. The mean-wage RSE is 2.4%. 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 1,270 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $37,070 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 Tire Repairers and Changers. It uses a Kentucky 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 $36,300 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 Tire Repairers and Changers row for Kentucky 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 1,270 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 0.91 is not a growth score. Rank 36 of 52 is not a place score. The 90.2 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 49-3093 in BLS area 21. 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 1,270 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.
