What this pays, and what it is worth
- This is a good state for the work. Wyoming pays this job a middle wage of $80,520, ranking 1 of 51 states and sitting about 60.11% above the national middle.
- Within Wyoming this is well-paid work. Of 433 occupations with published figures in the state, this job ranks 97 — in the top quarter of everything people do there.
- Cheaper living works in this state's favor. From $80,520 you keep $65,476 after tax, and local prices stretch that to the equivalent of $72,072 at national prices. Here the average runs under the middle, at $78,540.
- Wyoming's median for health technologists and technicians, all other is $80,520, about 60.11% above the national figure and 1 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.
- Ranked against every occupation Wyoming publishes a median for, health technologists and technicians, all other sits 97 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.
- Retained pay in Wyoming is $65,476 after the full tax stack, from $80,520. Because the state's price level runs below the national average, the price-adjusted equivalent is $72,072 — a real-terms figure describing purchasing power rather than compensation, and not a number that appears on any pay stub. Mean pay of $78,540 sits under the median, so the lower tail is the longer one.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $80,520 as a midpoint for Wyoming, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $49,020 and the ninetieth is $114,360 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- That $65,476 take-home in Wyoming comes from $80,520. 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 97 of 433.
- Two cautions on $72,072, the adjusted value of that $80,520 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 97 of 433 locally.
- The Wyoming median of $80,520 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $49,020 to $114,360. 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 $65,476, from $80,520, 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 97 of 433 locally, and the state ranks 1 of 51 for it.
- This $72,072 adjusted figure, worked from $80,520, 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 97 of 433 in the state. The occupation ranks 97 of 433 locally.
Questions people ask
Why is the pay range for this job so wide?
Because one job title covers very different work. The bottom tenth here earn $49,020 and the top tenth $114,360 — experience, employer and specialism separate them, and a single figure hides all three.
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 $72,072 in national terms.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $65,476 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?
Yes for this one. Pay is published in all 51 jurisdictions, so a state-to-state comparison here rests on the same survey everywhere rather than on a patchwork.
What drives the percentile dispersion in this occupation?
Dispersion between the tenth percentile ($49,020) and the ninetieth ($114,360) 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 $72,072 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 $65,476 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.
