What this pays, and what it is worth
- Middling, nationally. Florida pays this job around $48,430 at the midpoint, 19 of 48 states. The interesting numbers on this page are the two below it.
- Ordinary, locally speaking. This job ranks 303 among 493 occupations Florida publishes pay for.
- Costs eat into it here. Of $48,430, tax leaves $41,094 — and because Florida is dearer than average, that stretches only as far as $39,722 would nationally. Averages run higher here, $49,450, since top earners drag the number up.
- For coin, vending, and amusement machine servicers and repairers the Florida median is $48,430, ranking 19 of 48 states reporting. Mid-band nominal positions are the ones most frequently reordered by the adjustments, because no large wage premium exists to absorb a state's tax or price level.
- Position 303 of 493 in Florida places coin, vending, and amusement machine servicers and repairers in the middle of the state's wage distribution. Because within-state and cross-state rankings measure different things, this figure and the national one above should be read together rather than as a single verdict.
- After tax, $41,094 remains from the Florida median of $48,430 for this occupation. Applying the state's above-average price parity yields $39,722 in national-average terms — the quantity relevant to a relocation decision, and the one absent from essentially every published wage comparison. Mean pay of $49,450 exceeds the median, so the upper tail is doing the work.

Sources and assumptions
- A median is the middle, not an offer. Half of coin, vending, and amusement machine servicers and repairers in Florida earn under $48,430 and half over. The published range runs $34,210 at the tenth percentile to $63,390 at the ninetieth. Experience and employer move an individual a long way inside that.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind Florida's $41,094, worked from $48,430. 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 303 of 493.
- Two cautions on $39,722, the adjusted value of that $48,430 median. It levels out prices with a single number for all of Florida. No actual address matches that. The wage figures and price figures are also from different years. Each is published on its own timetable. This work sits at 303 of 493 locally.
- Figures are distribution medians for coin, vending, and amusement machine servicers and repairers in Florida, not entry or offer rates. The published band runs $34,210 to $63,390; within-state dispersion of that width routinely exceeds the dispersion between states, so tenure, employer and metropolitan area predict an individual's pay better than geography does.
- The Florida take-home of $41,094, on $48,430 for work ranking 303 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 303 of 493 in the state.
- This $39,722 adjusted figure, worked from $48,430, rests on a state-level price parity averaging over within-state dispersion larger than much of the between-state dispersion. Wage and price vintages differ by publication schedule. The result is directionally sound and not address-specific, for work at 303 of 493 in the state. The occupation ranks 303 of 493 locally.
Questions people ask
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
The range here is narrow. From $34,210 at the bottom tenth to $63,390 at the top, pay for this work clusters rather than spreads.
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 $39,722 of national purchasing power.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Less than people assume. $41,094 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 48 states here, and a missing state means too few reports, not no jobs.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($34,210 to $63,390) sits at or below the family's median dispersion, indicating relatively standardized compensation. Percentiles are published per state, so this dispersion is specific to Florida rather than a national figure.
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 $39,722 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 $41,094 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 48 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
