What this pays, and what it is worth
- This is a good state for the work. Minnesota pays facilities managers a middle wage of $109,720, ranking 16 of 51 states and sitting about 2.87% above the national middle.
- Locally, this pays well. Among 490 occupations Minnesota reports, facilities managers comes in at 41 — comfortably in the upper quarter.
- No great distortion either way. Minnesota costs about what the country costs, so from $109,720, take-home of $80,080 is worth roughly $81,369 in national money. The average comes to $116,290, above the middle, thanks to the top of the range.
- Minnesota's median for facilities managers is $109,720, about 2.87% above the national figure and 16 of 51 states reporting. Whether that premium reaches the worker depends on the two adjustments below, which is the part a wage table cannot tell you.
- Facilities managers ranks 41 of 490 occupations by median in Minnesota, in the top quartile. Within-state position is largely independent of national position, so this holds regardless of how the state compares to others for the same work.
- Price parity in Minnesota is near the national base, so for facilities managers, whose median is $109,720, the adjusted figure of $81,369 differs little from $80,080 retained after tax. The state's position for this occupation is therefore set by wage and tax rather than by living costs. At $116,290 the mean overshoots the median — the usual right-skewed shape.

Sources and assumptions
- Half the people doing this work in Minnesota earn less than $109,720. The published range is $74,220 up to $168,500, so an individual figure can sit a long way from the middle in either direction.
- One filer, no dependants, no pension contributions — that is the household behind Minnesota's $80,080, worked from $109,720. That is on purpose. It lets states be compared with each other, not with each other's family circumstances. Local city taxes are left out. Locally this work ranks 41 of 490.
- One number stands for prices across all of Minnesota, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $81,369, the adjusted value of that $109,720 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 41 of 490 in the state.
- Reported values are medians; for facilities managers in Minnesota the tenth-to-ninetieth percentile band is $74,220 to $168,500. Neither the median nor the band is an offer rate, and neither accounts for hours, shift differentials or overtime.
- The Minnesota take-home of $80,080, on $109,720 for work ranking 41 of 490 locally, models the simplest household deliberately: holding it constant is what makes the interstate comparison meaningful. It also means the absolute figure overstates liability for most real filers, and municipal income taxes are outside the model entirely. The occupation ranks 41 of 490 in the state.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Minnesota, so $81,369 — the adjusted value of that $109,720 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 41 of 490 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
No — it is the middle. Half of these workers earn more and half earn less. The average is $116,290, pulled upward by the top of the range, which is why the middle is the fairer number to plan against.
Why is the pay range for this job so wide?
The label is broader than the work. From $74,220 at the bottom tenth to $168,500 at the top, the same title covers roles that share little beyond a name.
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 $81,369.
Where does the difference between the wage and my paycheck go?
Into four separate taxes, not one. Federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare apply everywhere, and Minnesota adds its own income tax on top — which is why $80,080 of this wage survives to your account.
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 Minnesota is $116,290. 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 ($74,220) and the ninetieth ($168,500) 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?
Minnesota'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 $81,369 in national-average terms. The adjustment uses an all-items index and does not isolate housing.
What accounts for the gap between gross wage and take-home here?
Take-home of $80,080 reflects federal income tax, OASDI, Medicare and Minnesota 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.
