What this pays, and what it is worth
- Pay for this job is on the low side in Wyoming. The middle earner gets $42,340. That is 35 of 51 states, and about 5.43% under the national figure. Whether that matters depends on what things cost here.
- Against 433 occupations Wyoming publishes, this job lands at 342. That is the lower quarter. That is the comparison people actually feel, more than any national table.
- Cheaper living works in this state's favor. From $42,340 you keep $36,200 after tax, and local prices stretch that to the equivalent of $39,847 at national prices. Averages run higher here, $44,080, since top earners drag the number up.
- For customer service representatives, Wyoming sits in the lower band at $42,340, ranking 35 of 51 and trailing the national median by about 5.43%. Nominal rankings routinely invert once tax and regional price level are applied, so this position should not be read as the conclusion.
- Within Wyoming, this work ranks 342 of 433 occupations by median pay, in the bottom quartile. The within-state position is the more salient one for anyone weighing this job against alternatives available to them locally.
- Retained pay in Wyoming is $36,200 after the full tax stack, from $42,340. Because the state's price level runs below the national average, the price-adjusted equivalent is $39,847 — a real-terms figure describing purchasing power rather than compensation, and not a number that appears on any pay stub. Mean pay of $44,080 exceeds the median, so the upper tail is doing the work.

Sources and assumptions
- A median is the middle, not an offer. Half of customer service representatives in Wyoming earn under $42,340 and half over. The published range runs $29,760 at the tenth percentile to $59,790 at the ninetieth. Experience and employer move an individual a long way inside that.
- In Wyoming the take-home figure of $36,200, from $42,340, 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 342 of 433 occupations here.
- The wage data and the price data come from different years. That is how each is published. The price adjustment behind $39,847 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 342.
- Figures are distribution medians for customer service representatives in Wyoming, not entry or offer rates. The published band runs $29,760 to $59,790; 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.
- Take-home for Wyoming is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $36,200 from $42,340. 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 342 of 433 locally.
- Wage and price series carry different reference periods, each published on its own schedule. The real-terms figure of $39,847, worked from $42,340, 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 342 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 $44,080 because a long tail of high pay lifts it, so the two answer different questions.
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
Most of these jobs pay within a close range — $29,760 at the tenth percentile, $59,790 at the ninetieth.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
More than the figure suggests. Prices in Wyoming sit below the national level, so take-home here stretches like $39,847 would elsewhere. The wage is the same; the ground it covers is larger.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $36,200 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?
This occupation is published everywhere — all 51 of them — so comparing states measures real differences rather than gaps in the data.
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 $44,080. 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 is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($29,760 to $59,790) 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 $39,847 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 $36,200 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.
