Niles, MI was 5.1% above the U.S. median for Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. It ranked 43 of 128 metro areas with a published annual median. Neither comparison adjusts for cost of living, benefits, experience, employer mix, or hours.
What the Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median says in Niles, MI
The May 2025 BLS OEWS estimate puts the Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median in Niles, MI at $50,370 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 51-4122 and BLS area 35660.
BLS lists 80 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 $50,850 per year. Mean uses all wage values behind the estimate, so high or low values can move it away from the median.
Niles, MI's Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median is 5.1% above the U.S. Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median of $47,920 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 51-4122 and area 35660. SOC 51-4122 names Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. Area 35660 names Niles, MI. Both keys must match before WageScope can show or index this answer.
The 51-4122/35660 row reports 80 wage and salary jobs, 1.35 jobs per 1,000 local jobs, and a 6.64 location quotient. Each value stays under the same two source keys.
For 51-4122/35660, the annual median is $50,370 per year, while the matching mean is $50,850 per year. The row is published with annual and hourly fields. WageScope does not switch units to fill a blank.
BLS area 35660 facts behind this Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders page
Area 35660 reports 59,970 wage and salary jobs across all covered occupations. Its annual mean is $58,170. Its annual median is $45,980. The employment RSE is 0%. The mean-wage RSE is 0.6%. These are facts for the whole area. They do not replace the 51-4122 row.
The all-jobs wage ladder in Niles, MI runs from $29,020 at the 10th percentile to $102,130 at the 90th percentile. The 25th percentile is $35,260. The median is $45,980. The 75th percentile is $66,230. This is a place check, not a pay range for Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders.
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 35660. They do not show related skills or a path into Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders.
1. Area 35660, SOC 35-3023, Fast Food and Counter Workers: 1,670 jobs, $27,740 annual median, 27.85 jobs per 1,000, and 1.12 location quotient.
2. Area 35660, SOC 41-2011, Cashiers: 1,610 jobs, $29,550 annual median, 26.92 jobs per 1,000, and 1.35 location quotient.

Pay range
Read the Niles, MI wage ladder for Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders
The 10th percentile is $39,210 per year. The 25th percentile is $46,360 per year. The median is $50,370 per year. The 75th percentile is $50,370 per year. The 90th percentile is $65,140 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 $46,360 per year to $50,370 per year. The 10th-to-90th span is $25,930. Use the full ladder when a job post sits far from the median.
Niles, MI has a annual median of $50,370 per year. Michigan has $42,530 per year. The U.S. row has $47,920 per year. WageScope keeps annual and hourly values apart.
Niles, MI is 18.4% above Michigan on the same published median. Niles, MI is 5.1% above 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 Niles, MI sits for Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders
Niles, MI ranks 43 of 128 among metro areas with a published annual median for Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. The list keeps one SOC code, one map type, one wage metric, and one BLS release. It skips rows without the matching median.
Rank 43 of 128 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.
40. Worcester, MA has a Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median of $50,760 per year, 60 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.87.
41. Louisville/Jefferson County, KY-IN has a Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median of $50,740 per year, 460 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 3.33.
42. Rochester, NY has a Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median of $50,530 per year, 50 estimated jobs, and a location quotient of 0.49.
Pay leaders
Where Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders medians lead among metro areas
The rows below use the same SOC 51-4122, the same annual median, the same May 2025 BLS release, and the same metro map type. Tuscaloosa, AL has the highest published median in this set, at $82,250 per year. Niles, MI sits at $50,370 per year.
A pay lead is one fact. It does not show the size of the job base. It does not show how common Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders 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. Tuscaloosa, AL has a Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median of $82,250 per year, or $31,880 above Niles, MI. BLS lists 40 jobs there, compared with 80 in Niles, MI. The location quotient is 1.7.
2. Phoenix-Mesa-Chandler, AZ has a Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median of $75,200 per year, or $24,830 above Niles, MI. BLS lists 230 jobs there, compared with 80 in Niles, MI. The location quotient is 0.48.
Job-base leaders
Where BLS counts the most Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders jobs
Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI has the largest published metro job estimate for Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders in this same-source set, at 1,190 jobs. Niles, MI has 80. 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. Detroit-Warren-Dearborn, MI has 1,190 estimated Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders jobs, a gap of 1,110 jobs from Niles, MI. Its median is $44,060 per year, or $6,310 below Niles, MI. Its location quotient is 3.07.
2. Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim, CA has 830 estimated Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders jobs, a gap of 750 jobs from Niles, MI. Its median is $45,990 per year, or $4,380 below Niles, MI. Its location quotient is 0.65.
Local-share leaders
Where Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders takes the largest share of local jobs
Fond du Lac, WI has the highest published location quotient in this metro set, at 13.86. Niles, MI has 6.64. 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 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders 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. Fond du Lac, WI has a location quotient of 13.86, a gap of 7.22 from Niles, MI. BLS lists 120 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders jobs and a median of $57,640 per year, or $7,270 above Niles, MI.
2. Elkhart-Goshen, IN has a location quotient of 9.23, a gap of 2.59 from Niles, MI. BLS lists 240 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders jobs and a median of $47,840 per year, or $2,530 below Niles, MI.
Job scale and share
How common Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders is in Niles, MI
BLS lists 80 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders jobs in Niles, MI. It also lists 1.35 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 6.64. A value of 1 means Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders 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.
Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders beside other roles in Niles, MI
The all-occupations median in Niles, MI is $45,980 per year. The Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median is $50,370 per year. Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders is 9.5% 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 Niles, MI. 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 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. 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. Machinists, SOC 51-4041, has a Niles, MI median of $50,430 per year. BLS lists 530 jobs and a location quotient of 4.81.
2. Heavy and Tractor-Trailer Truck Drivers, SOC 53-3032, has a Niles, MI median of $48,780 per year. BLS lists 640 jobs and a location quotient of 0.81.
Area job mix
The largest detailed roles in Niles, MI
Fast Food and Counter Workers is the largest detailed occupation in the bounded Niles, MI table, at 1,670 jobs. Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders has 80 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 59,970. 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 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders's own median, spread, and share in their own fields.
1. Fast Food and Counter Workers has 1,670 jobs in Niles, MI, a gap of 1,590 from Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. Its median is $27,740 per year, or $22,630 below Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. Its location quotient is 1.12.
Area pay mix
Published role medians around Niles, MI
Mechanical Engineers has the highest published median in the bounded Niles, MI role table, at $106,320 per year. Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders has $50,370 per year. This puts the role beside a local pay range without blending the source rows.
The local all-occupations median is $45,980 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. Mechanical Engineers has a median of $106,320 per year in Niles, MI, or $55,950 above Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. BLS lists 550 jobs, compared with 80 for Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. Its location quotient is 4.84.
2. General and Operations Managers has a median of $85,850 per year in Niles, MI, or $35,480 above Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. BLS lists 1,100 jobs, compared with 80 for Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. Its location quotient is 0.82.
Area role shares
Roles with the largest local share in Niles, MI
Mechanical Engineers has the highest location quotient in the bounded Niles, MI role table, at 4.84. Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders has 6.64. 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 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders with the same SOC code in another place. This keeps a broad area pattern from replacing the exact role-place row.
1. Mechanical Engineers has a location quotient of 4.84 in Niles, MI, a gap of 1.80 from Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. BLS lists 550 jobs and a median of $106,320 per year, or $55,950 above Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders.
2. Machinists has a location quotient of 4.81 in Niles, MI, a gap of 1.83 from Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. BLS lists 530 jobs and a median of $50,430 per year, or $60 above Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders.
Price-level view
What $50,370 may mean after the Niles, MI price level
BEA's 2024 all-items price index for Niles, MI is 92.4. The U.S. level is 100. The local level is 7.6% below that mark. This is a broad price comparison. It is not a personal budget.
WageScope divides the $50,370 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders median by 92.4 divided by 100. The result is $54,531 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 71.6. Goods are 93.7. Utilities are 96.0. Other services are 99.6. 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 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders row is 10.4%. The mean-wage RSE is 1.7%. 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 80 job estimate. The mean-wage RSE belongs to the $50,850 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 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders. It uses a Niles, MI 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. Job cards can change without changing this guide. They do not count toward the 1,500-word content floor. A listing range does not replace the $50,370 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 Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Machine Setters, Operators, and Tenders row for Niles, MI 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 80 job estimate is not a live opening count. The location quotient of 6.64 is not a growth score. Rank 43 of 128 is not a place score. The 92.4 price index is not a personal budget.
Use the row for one clear task. Read the May 2025 wage spread for SOC 51-4122 in BLS area 35660. 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 80 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.
