1.1%
Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ was 12.4% below the U.S. median for Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. It ranked 239 of 367 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median says in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ at $52,570 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 51-8031 and BLS area 29420.
BLS lists 200 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 $54,400 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ's Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median is 12.4% below the U.S. Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median of $60,020 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.
Exact source record
Read source key 51-8031 with area 29420

Same-source checks
Compare Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ with its state and the U.S.
Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ has a annual median of $52,570 per year. Arizona has $61,340 per year. The U.S. row has $60,020 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ is 14.3% below Arizona on the same published median. Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ is 12.4% 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.
Like-for-like rank
Where Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ sits for Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators
Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ ranks 239 of 367 among metro areas with a published annual median for Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 239 of 367 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.
236. Macon-Bibb County, GA has a Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median of $53,330 per year, 30 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.38.
237. Saginaw, MI has a Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median of $52,820 per year, 110 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 1.6.

Pay leaders
Where Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 51-8031, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has the highest published median in this set, at $125,160 per year. Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ sits at $52,570 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators 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 Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA has a Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median of $125,160 per year, or $72,590 above Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. BLS lists 1,040 jobs there, compared with 200 in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. The location quotient is 0.53.
2. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA has a Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median of $108,190 per year, or $55,620 above Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. BLS lists 460 jobs there, compared with 200 in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. The location quotient is 0.49.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators jobs
New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ has the largest published metro job estimate for Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators in this same-source set, at 3,690 jobs. Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ has 200. 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 3,690 estimated Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators jobs, a gap of 3,490 jobs from Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. Its median is $83,320 per year, or $30,750 above Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. Its location quotient is 0.47.
2. Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ has 2,570 estimated Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators jobs, a gap of 2,370 jobs from Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. Its median is $63,660 per year, or $11,090 above Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. Its location quotient is 1.31.
Local-share leaders
Where Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators takes the largest share of local jobs
Farmington, NM has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 5.07. Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ has 4.24. 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 Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators 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. Farmington, NM has a location quotient of 5.07, a gap of 0.83 from Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. BLS lists 200 Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators jobs and a median of $48,080 per year, or $4,490 below Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ.
2. Santa Fe, NM has a location quotient of 4.65, a gap of 0.41 from Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. BLS lists 240 Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators jobs and a median of $69,870 per year, or $17,300 above Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ.
Job scale and share
How common Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators is in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ
BLS lists 200 Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators jobs in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. It also lists 3.51 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 4.24. A value of 1 means Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators 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.
Local job mix
Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators beside other roles in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ
The all-occupations median in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ is $44,230 per year. The Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median is $52,570 per year. Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators is 18.9% 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 Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ. 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 Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. 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. Electricians, SOC 47-2111, has a Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ median of $54,220 per year. BLS lists 390 jobs and a location quotient of 1.41.
2. Firefighters, SOC 33-2011, has a Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ median of $54,810 per year. BLS lists 500 jobs and a location quotient of 3.96.

Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ
Cashiers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ table, at 2,650 jobs. Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators has 200 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 56,490. 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 Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Cashiers has 2,650 jobs in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ, a gap of 2,450 from Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. Its median is $32,510 per year, or $20,060 below Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. Its location quotient is 2.36.
2. General and Operations Managers has 2,170 jobs in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ, a gap of 1,970 from Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. Its median is $74,050 per year, or $21,480 above Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. Its location quotient is 1.7.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ
Registered Nurses has the highest published median in the bounded Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ role table, at $93,990 per year. Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators has $52,570 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $44,230 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 $93,990 per year in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ, or $41,420 above Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. BLS lists 1,290 jobs, compared with 200 for Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. Its location quotient is 1.05.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $74,050 per year in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ, or $21,480 above Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. BLS lists 2,170 jobs, compared with 200 for Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. Its location quotient is 1.7.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ
Firefighters has the highest location quotient in the bounded Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ role table, at 3.96. Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators has 4.24. 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 Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Firefighters has a location quotient of 3.96 in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ, a gap of 0.28 from Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. BLS lists 500 jobs and a median of $54,810 per year, or $2,240 above Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators.
2. Cashiers has a location quotient of 2.36 in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ, a gap of 1.88 from Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. BLS lists 2,650 jobs and a median of $32,510 per year, or $20,060 below Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators.
Price-level view
What $52,570 may mean after the Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ is 94.1. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 5.9% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $52,570 Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators median by 94.1 divided by 100. The result is $55,867 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 79.8. Goods are 96.2. Utilities are 88.7. Other services are 99.8. The parts do not move as one. WageScope uses BEA's all-items index for the proxy and does not make its own basket.
Data care
How much care to use with the Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ row
The employment RSE for this Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators row is 3.2%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.1%. 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 200 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $54,400 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.
Job and résumé path
Use Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ wage data before you tailor
The job block looks for strict employer-title matches to Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators. It uses a Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ 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 $52,570 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.
Limits
What the Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators row for Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ 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 200 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 4.24 is not a growth score. Rank 239 of 367 is not a place score. The 94.1 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 51-8031 in BLS area 29420. 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.
How many Water and Wastewater Treatment Plant and System Operators jobs does BLS estimate in Lake Havasu City-Kingman, AZ?
BLS published an employment estimate of 200 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.
