What this pays, and what it is worth

  • Middling, nationally. Oregon pays credit analysts around $80,380 at the midpoint, 18 of 51 states. The interesting numbers on this page are the two below it.
  • Middle of the local pack. Of 489 occupations Oregon reports figures for, this is number 157.
  • Oregon is an expensive state, and the adjusted figure shows it. From $80,380 the take-home is $58,894; in national-average money that behaves like $56,239. The average comes to $90,300, above the middle, thanks to the top of the range.
  • For credit analysts the Oregon median is $80,380, ranking 18 of 51 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.
  • In Oregon's occupational distribution, credit analysts sits at 157 of 489 — neither quartile. This local position is what a resident compares against, and it is determined by the state's own labor market rather than by national patterns for this occupation.
  • Take-home for credit analysts in Oregon, on $80,380, is $58,894; deflated by the state's price level, $56,239. ⚠️ The deflator is statewide, so it understates the erosion in the state's metropolitan areas and overstates it outside them. At $90,300 the mean overshoots the median — the usual right-skewed shape.

Sources and assumptions
  • Treat $80,380 as a midpoint for Oregon, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $62,310 and the ninetieth is $129,830 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
  • In Oregon the take-home figure of $58,894, from $80,380, assumes one filer, no dependants, and nothing paid into a pension before tax. Each of those lowers the bill, so treat it as the plain case. City and school-district income taxes are not included either, and in a few states those are real money. It ranks 157 of 489 occupations here.
  • Two cautions on $56,239, the adjusted value of that $80,380 median. It levels out prices with a single number for all of Oregon. 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 157 of 489 locally.
  • The Oregon median of $80,380 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $62,310 to $129,830. Because that spread is typically larger than the interstate spread, a state median is a weak predictor for any individual worker in this occupation.
  • Take-home for Oregon is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $58,894 from $80,380. Each omitted item reduces taxable income, so the figure is a lower bound on retained pay for this household shape. Municipal and school-district income taxes are excluded, which understates the burden materially in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Maryland. The occupation ranks 157 of 489 locally.
  • This $56,239 adjusted figure, worked from $80,380, 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 157 of 489 in the state. The occupation ranks 157 of 489 locally.

Questions people ask

Is this the average pay for the job?

It is the midpoint, not the average. The average here is $90,300, 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 $62,310 at the bottom tenth to $129,830 at the top, the same title covers roles that share little beyond a name.

Does a bigger number here mean I am better off?

The number and the value are different things. Oregon costs more than the national average, so this take-home stretches like $56,239 rather than its face figure.

Where does the difference between the wage and my paycheck go?

Four deductions, stacked. The federal layer and the two payroll taxes apply wherever you work; Oregon then takes its own share, leaving $58,894.

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 Oregon is $90,300. 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 ($62,310) and the ninetieth ($129,830) 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?

Oregon's regional price parity sits above the national average, so nominal wages overstate purchasing power. Deflating take-home by the state price level gives $56,239 in national-average terms. ⚠️ RPPs are an all-items index; housing parities vary far more widely than the headline figure.

What accounts for the gap between gross wage and take-home here?

Take-home of $58,894 reflects federal income tax, OASDI, Medicare and Oregon income tax for a single filer with no adjustments. The state layer is levied in addition to the federal one; only its rate and base differ between states.

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.
