What this pays, and what it is worth
- The nominal figure here is modest. Wyoming pays this job a middle wage of $120,850, 51 of 51 states and about 31% below the national middle. Hold that thought until the adjusted numbers.
- This is one of the better-paid jobs in Wyoming. It ranks 18 out of 433 occupations the state publishes figures for, which puts it in the top quarter locally.
- Here is where Wyoming does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $120,850 you keep $93,848, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $103,302 would elsewhere. The average is higher, $135,610, because the best-paid pull it up.
- Wyoming's $120,850 median for computer and information systems managers places it 51 of 51 states, about 31% 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.
- Within Wyoming, computer and information systems managers ranks 18 of 433 occupations by median pay, placing it in the top quartile of the local distribution. This is the comparison a resident actually makes — against neighbors rather than against the same job elsewhere.
- After federal, FICA and Wyoming income tax, retained pay for computer and information systems managers on $120,850 is $93,848. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $103,302 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 $135,610 sits above the median, the right skew typical of wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $120,850 as a midpoint for Wyoming, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $83,740 and the ninetieth is $197,960 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- That $93,848 take-home in Wyoming comes from $120,850. 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 18 of 433.
- One number stands for prices across all of Wyoming, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $103,302, the adjusted value of that $120,850 median, as a way to compare states fairly, not as a quote for any particular place. The two datasets are also from different years. This job sits at 18 of 433 in the state.
- The Wyoming median of $120,850 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $83,740 to $197,960. Because that spread is typically larger than the interstate spread, a state median is a weak predictor for any individual worker in this occupation.
- Retained pay of $93,848, from $120,850, 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 18 of 433 locally, and the state ranks 51 of 51 for it.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Wyoming, so $103,302 — the adjusted value of that $120,850 median — establishes comparability between states rather than accuracy within one. The wage and parity series are dated independently, each following its own publication cycle, and neither is projected forward. This occupation sits at 18 of 433 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
Half earn more than this and half earn less. The average sits at $135,610 because a long tail of high pay lifts it, so the two answer different questions.
Why is the pay range for this job so wide?
One title, many jobs. The lowest tenth take $83,740, the highest tenth $197,960, and what separates them is experience, employer and what exactly the role does.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
A smaller wage in a cheaper place is not automatically less. Adjusted for local prices, this is worth $103,302.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $93,848 survives, because Wyoming levies no wage income tax. The federal share does not change with the state you work in.
Can I compare this job across every state?
All 51 jurisdictions report this work, which makes the ranking a like-for-like one.
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 Wyoming is $135,610. 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 ($83,740) and the ninetieth ($197,960) 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.
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 $103,302 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 $93,848 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.
Is this occupation's state coverage complete?
State-level estimates are published for all 51 jurisdictions for this occupation, so cross-state comparison is not confounded by suppression. ⚠️ Estimates remain survey-based and carry sampling error; small differences between adjacent states should not be over-read.
