What this pays, and what it is worth
- The nominal figure here is modest. Florida pays this job a middle wage of $94,850, 46 of 50 states and about 16.89% below the national middle. Hold that thought until the adjusted numbers.
- Locally, this pays well. Among 493 occupations Florida reports, this job comes in at 74 — comfortably in the upper quarter.
- Costs eat into it here. Of $94,850, tax leaves $75,557 — and because Florida is dearer than average, that stretches only as far as $73,036 would nationally. Averages run higher here, $111,010, since top earners drag the number up.
- Florida's $94,850 median for administrative services managers places it 46 of 50 states, about 16.89% below national. Because both the tax and price adjustments tend to favor lower-nominal states, this ranking is the least stable of the three reported here.
- Administrative services managers ranks 74 of 493 occupations by median in Florida, in the top quartile. Within-state position is largely independent of national position, so this holds regardless of how the state compares to others for the same work.
- After tax, $75,557 remains from the Florida median of $94,850 for this occupation. Applying the state's above-average price parity yields $73,036 in national-average terms — the quantity relevant to a relocation decision, and the one absent from essentially every published wage comparison. Mean pay of $111,010 exceeds the median, so the upper tail is doing the work.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $94,850 as a midpoint for Florida, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $51,330 and the ninetieth is $192,970 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind Florida's $75,557, worked from $94,850. That is on purpose. It lets states be compared with each other, not with each other's family circumstances. Local city taxes are left out. Locally this work ranks 74 of 493.
- The wage data and the price data come from different years. That is how each is published. The price adjustment behind $73,036 uses one figure for the whole of Florida. A city and a rural county there can differ by more than two states do. Out of 493 occupations the state publishes, this one sits at 74.
- The Florida median of $94,850 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $51,330 to $192,970. Because that spread is typically larger than the interstate spread, a state median is a weak predictor for any individual worker in this occupation.
- The Florida take-home of $75,557, on $94,850 for work ranking 74 of 493 locally, models the simplest household deliberately: holding it constant is what makes the interstate comparison meaningful. It also means the absolute figure overstates liability for most real filers, and municipal income taxes are outside the model entirely. The occupation ranks 74 of 493 in the state.
- Wage and price series carry different reference periods, each published on its own schedule. The real-terms figure of $73,036, worked from $94,850, deflates by a statewide parity that conceals substantial intra-state variation, concentrated in housing — so it supports comparison between states rather than the pricing of a move to a particular Florida address, on work sitting at 74 of 493 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
It is the midpoint, not the average. The average here is $111,010, dragged up by high earners; the middle figure describes a typical worker better.
Why is the pay range for this job so wide?
The label is broader than the work. From $51,330 at the bottom tenth to $192,970 at the top, the same title covers roles that share little beyond a name.
Does a bigger number here mean I am better off?
A larger wage in a dearer place is not automatically more. Adjusted for local prices, this pay behaves like $73,036 of national purchasing power.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Less than people assume. $75,557 of this wage reaches your account, because Florida takes no income tax from wages — but federal tax, Social Security and Medicare still apply exactly as they do everywhere else.
Why is this job missing from some states?
The survey withholds small samples rather than publish an unreliable number. Pay appears for 50 states here, and a missing state means too few reports, not no jobs.
How does the published median differ from the mean for this occupation?
The median is the midpoint of the distribution; the mean for this occupation in Florida is $111,010. Wage distributions are right-skewed, so the mean exceeds the median wherever a minority earn substantially more. BLS publishes both because substituting one for the other misstates a typical worker's pay.
What drives the percentile dispersion in this occupation?
Dispersion between the tenth percentile ($51,330) and the ninetieth ($192,970) exceeds the family median dispersion. SOC codes aggregate roles differing in seniority, industry and specialisation, and BLS does not disaggregate below the detailed occupation level, so within-title variance is not separable from the published series.
How does the state price level affect real compensation?
Florida's regional price parity sits above the national average, so nominal wages overstate purchasing power. Deflating take-home by the state price level gives $73,036 in national-average terms. ⚠️ RPPs are an all-items index; housing parities vary far more widely than the headline figure.
Why is the take-home ratio comparatively high in this state?
Florida levies no personal income tax on wages, so take-home of $75,557 reflects the federal layer and FICA alone. Federal income tax and FICA are unchanged; states without a wage income tax generally recover revenue through consumption and property bases instead.
Why does this occupation lack published estimates in every state?
BLS suppresses estimates failing disclosure or reliability criteria. This occupation has published state-level estimates in 50 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
