What this pays, and what it is worth
- Middling, nationally. Wyoming pays this job around $69,090 at the midpoint, 31 of 50 states. The interesting numbers on this page are the two below it.
- Ordinary, locally speaking. This job ranks 139 among 433 occupations Wyoming publishes pay for.
- Here is where Wyoming does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $69,090 you keep $57,435, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $63,221 would elsewhere. The average is lower, $68,830, so pay clusters nearer the top than usual.
- For compensation, benefits, and job analysis specialists the Wyoming median is $69,090, ranking 31 of 50 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 139 of 433 in Wyoming places compensation, benefits, and job analysis specialists 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 federal, FICA and Wyoming income tax, retained pay for compensation, benefits, and job analysis specialists on $69,090 is $57,435. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $63,221 in national-average terms. ⚠️ That figure is purchasing power, not a wage, and nobody is paid it; it is what the take-home buys. The mean of $68,830 falls below the median, a left skew that is uncommon in wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- Half the people doing this work in Wyoming earn less than $69,090. The published range is $64,330 up to $69,090, so an individual figure can sit a long way from the middle in either direction.
- That $57,435 take-home in Wyoming comes from $69,090. It is the no-frills case: single filer, standard deduction, nothing set aside before tax. Real circumstances almost always reduce the tax. City and school-district taxes are not counted at all. Locally the work ranks 139 of 433.
- The wage data and the price data come from different years. That is how each is published. The price adjustment behind $63,221 uses one figure for the whole of Wyoming. A city and a rural county there can differ by more than two states do. Out of 433 occupations the state publishes, this one sits at 139.
- Reported values are medians; for compensation, benefits, and job analysis specialists in Wyoming the tenth-to-ninetieth percentile band is $64,330 to $69,090. Neither the median nor the band is an offer rate, and neither accounts for hours, shift differentials or overtime.
- Retained pay of $57,435, from $69,090, assumes a single Wyoming filer with the standard deduction and no elective deferrals. Pre-tax retirement or HSA contributions, dependants and itemized deductions all reduce it further; local income taxes, excluded here, would increase it in the states that levy them. This occupation ranks 139 of 433 locally, and the state ranks 31 of 50 for it.
- Wage and price series carry different reference periods, each published on its own schedule. The real-terms figure of $63,221, worked from $69,090, 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 Wyoming address, on work sitting at 139 of 433 locally.
Questions people ask
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
The range here is narrow. From $64,330 at the bottom tenth to $69,090 at the top, pay for this work clusters rather than spreads.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
Further than the number implies. Wyoming is cheaper than the national average, so this take-home behaves like $63,221 in national terms.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Most of it arrives. $57,435 lands after tax, since there is no state income tax on wages here — though the federal floor is identical in every state.
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.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($64,330 to $69,090) sits at or below the family's median dispersion, indicating relatively standardized compensation. Percentiles are published per state, so this dispersion is specific to Wyoming rather than a national figure.
What is this occupation's price-adjusted compensation in this state?
Wyoming's regional price parity is at or below the national average, so nominal wages understate purchasing power. Take-home deflated by the state price level is $63,221 in national-average terms. The adjustment uses an all-items index and does not isolate housing.
Why is the take-home ratio comparatively high in this state?
Wyoming levies no personal income tax on wages, so take-home of $57,435 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.
