What this pays, and what it is worth
- Wyoming is among the lower-paying states for financial managers. The middle earner takes $124,910, ranking 48 of 51 states — about 25.01% below the national middle. Costs here are often lower too, which the figures further down account for.
- Within Wyoming this is well-paid work. Of 433 occupations with published figures in the state, financial managers ranks 14 — in the top quarter of everything people do there.
- Here is where Wyoming does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $124,910 you keep $96,642, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $106,378 would elsewhere. The average is higher, $134,710, because the best-paid pull it up.
- Wyoming ranks 48 of 51 for financial managers, with a median of $124,910 — about 25.01% below the national figure. A nominal shortfall is not by itself a real one: lower-paying states frequently carry lower tax and lower price levels, and the adjusted figures below are where that is settled rather than assumed.
- Ranked against every occupation Wyoming publishes a median for, financial managers sits 14 of 433 — the upper quartile of the state's wage distribution. National standing and within-state standing are separate questions, and a job can occupy very different positions on each.
- After federal, FICA and Wyoming income tax, retained pay for financial managers on $124,910 is $96,642. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $106,378 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 $134,710 sits above the median, the right skew typical of wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- Half the people doing this work in Wyoming earn less than $124,910. The published range is $64,140 up to $203,230, so an individual figure can sit a long way from the middle in either direction.
- In Wyoming the take-home figure of $96,642, from $124,910, 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 14 of 433 occupations here.
- Two cautions on $106,378, the adjusted value of that $124,910 median. It levels out prices with a single number for all of Wyoming. 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 14 of 433 locally.
- Reported values are medians; for financial managers in Wyoming the tenth-to-ninetieth percentile band is $64,140 to $203,230. Neither the median nor the band is an offer rate, and neither accounts for hours, shift differentials or overtime.
- Take-home for Wyoming is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $96,642 from $124,910. 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 14 of 433 locally.
- This $106,378 adjusted figure, worked from $124,910, 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 14 of 433 in the state. The occupation ranks 14 of 433 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
It is the midpoint, not the average. The average here is $134,710, 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 $64,140 at the bottom tenth to $203,230 at the top, the same title covers roles that share little beyond a name.
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 $106,378 would elsewhere. The wage is the same; the ground it covers is larger.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Most of it arrives. $96,642 lands after tax, since there is no state income tax on wages here — though the federal floor is identical in every state.
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 $134,710. 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 ($64,140) and the ninetieth ($203,230) 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 $106,378 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 $96,642 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.
