What this pays, and what it is worth
- Pay for industrial production managers is on the low side in Ohio. The middle earner gets $109,340. That is 45 of 50 states, and about 13.26% under the national figure. Whether that matters depends on what things cost here.
- This is one of the better-paid jobs in Ohio. It ranks 35 out of 494 occupations the state publishes figures for, which puts it in the top quarter locally.
- Here is where Ohio does better than its wage suggests. From a median of $109,340 you keep $83,460, and because things cost less here than the national average, that behaves like $90,903 would elsewhere. The average is higher, $119,910, because the best-paid pull it up.
- For industrial production managers, Ohio sits in the lower band at $109,340, ranking 45 of 50 and trailing the national median by about 13.26%. Nominal rankings routinely invert once tax and regional price level are applied, so this position should not be read as the conclusion.
- Within Ohio, industrial production managers ranks 35 of 494 occupations by median pay, placing it in the top quartile of the local distribution. This is the comparison a resident actually makes — against neighbors rather than against the same job elsewhere.
- After federal, FICA and Ohio income tax, retained pay for industrial production managers on $109,340 is $83,460. Deflating by the state's price level — below the national average — gives $90,903 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 $119,910 sits above the median, the right skew typical of wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- Treat $109,340 as a midpoint for Ohio, not a promise. The tenth percentile is $73,180 and the ninetieth is $171,100 — a wide band, and where you land in it depends on far more than the state.
- In Ohio the take-home figure of $83,460, from $109,340, 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 35 of 494 occupations here.
- Two cautions on $90,903, the adjusted value of that $109,340 median. It levels out prices with a single number for all of Ohio. 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 35 of 494 locally.
- The Ohio median of $109,340 describes the midpoint of a distribution spanning $73,180 to $171,100. 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 Ohio is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $83,460 from $109,340. 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 35 of 494 locally.
- This $90,903 adjusted figure, worked from $109,340, 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 35 of 494 in the state. The occupation ranks 35 of 494 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 $119,910, 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?
One title, many jobs. The lowest tenth take $73,180, the highest tenth $171,100, and what separates them is experience, employer and what exactly the role does.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
More than the figure suggests. Prices in Ohio sit below the national level, so take-home here stretches like $90,903 would elsewhere. The wage is the same; the ground it covers is larger.
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 Ohio adds its own income tax on top — which is why $83,460 of this wage survives to your account.
Why is this job missing from some states?
A blank is a suppression, not a zero. 50 states have a published figure for this work; the others had too few responses to release 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 Ohio is $119,910. 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 ($73,180) and the ninetieth ($171,100) 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?
Ohio'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 $90,903 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 $83,460 reflects federal income tax, OASDI, Medicare and Ohio 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.
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 50 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
