What this pays, and what it is worth

  • Middling, nationally. Wyoming pays this job around $45,520 at the midpoint, 23 of 48 states. The interesting numbers on this page are the two below it.
  • Against other work in Wyoming, this sits in the middle: 321 of 433 occupations with published pay. Solidly ordinary for the state, which is not the same as ordinary nationally.
  • Cheaper living works in this state's favor. From $45,520 you keep $38,755 after tax, and local prices stretch that to the equivalent of $42,660 at national prices. Here the average runs under the middle, at $44,970.
  • For electrical, electronic, and electromechanical assemblers, except coil winders, tapers, and finishers the Wyoming median is $45,520, ranking 23 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.
  • Electrical, electronic, and electromechanical assemblers, except coil winders, tapers, and finishers ranks 321 of 433 occupations in Wyoming by median pay, in the middle bands. Within-state and national positions are separate measurements and a job commonly sits in different quartiles on each.
  • Retained pay in Wyoming is $38,755 after the full tax stack, from $45,520. Because the state's price level runs below the national average, the price-adjusted equivalent is $42,660 — a real-terms figure describing purchasing power rather than compensation, and not a number that appears on any pay stub. Mean pay of $44,970 sits under the median, so the lower tail is the longer one.

Sources and assumptions
  • Treat $45,520 as a midpoint for Wyoming, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $39,610 and the ninetieth is $47,870 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
  • That $38,755 take-home in Wyoming comes from $45,520. 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 321 of 433.
  • One number stands for prices across all of Wyoming, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $42,660, the adjusted value of that $45,520 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 321 of 433 in the state.
  • The Wyoming median of $45,520 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $39,610 to $47,870. 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 $38,755, from $45,520, 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 321 of 433 locally, and the state ranks 23 of 48 for it.
  • Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Wyoming, so $42,660 — the adjusted value of that $45,520 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 321 of 433 locally.

Questions people ask

How much does pay for this job actually vary?

Less than you might expect. The bottom tenth earn $39,610 and the top tenth $47,870, so most people doing this work in Wyoming sit within a fairly tight band.

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 $42,660 would elsewhere. The wage is the same; the ground it covers is larger.

Is most of this wage taxed away?

Less than people assume. $38,755 of this wage reaches your account, because Wyoming 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?

A blank is a suppression, not a zero. 48 states have a published figure for this work; the others had too few responses to release one.

What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?

The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($39,610 to $47,870) 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 $42,660 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 $38,755 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.
