What this pays, and what it is worth
- Neither high nor low. Wyoming is 26 of 48 states for this job, with a middle wage of $59,640. What that is worth is the question the rest of this page answers.
- Middle of the local pack. Of 433 occupations Wyoming reports figures for, this is number 215.
- Wyoming is cheaper than average, and that shows up here. From $59,640 the take-home is $50,101; adjusted for what things actually cost, it goes as far as $55,148 would nationally. The average lands at $59,010, below the middle of the range.
- Wyoming ranks 26 of 48 for first-line supervisors of farming, fishing, and forestry workers at $59,640. The nominal figure is unremarkable; the adjusted figures are where the state's actual position for this occupation is determined.
- In Wyoming's occupational distribution, first-line supervisors of farming, fishing, and forestry workers sits at 215 of 433 — 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.
- Post-tax income for first-line supervisors of farming, fishing, and forestry workers in Wyoming, on $59,640, is $50,101 — equivalent to $55,148 once regional price parity is applied. ⚠️ The adjustment uses a statewide index that describes no particular address; within-state price variation, concentrated in housing, routinely exceeds the difference between two states. At $59,010 the mean undershoots the median, an inversion of the usual skew.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $59,640 as a midpoint for Wyoming, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $41,440 and the ninetieth is $74,370 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- In Wyoming the take-home figure of $50,101, from $59,640, 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 215 of 433 occupations here.
- One number stands for prices across all of Wyoming, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $55,148, the adjusted value of that $59,640 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 215 of 433 in the state.
- The Wyoming median of $59,640 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $41,440 to $74,370. 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 Wyoming is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $50,101 from $59,640. 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 215 of 433 locally.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Wyoming, so $55,148 — the adjusted value of that $59,640 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 215 of 433 locally.
Questions people ask
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
The range here is narrow. From $41,440 at the bottom tenth to $74,370 at the top, pay for this work clusters rather than spreads.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
Further than the number implies. Wyoming is cheaper than the national average, so this take-home behaves like $55,148 in national terms.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
Most of it arrives. $50,101 lands after tax, since there is no state income tax on wages here — though the federal floor is identical in every state.
Why is this job missing from some states?
The survey withholds small samples rather than publish an unreliable number. Pay appears for 48 states here, and a missing state means too few reports, not no jobs.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($41,440 to $74,370) 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 $55,148 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 $50,101 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.
