What this pays, and what it is worth
- Pay for this job is strong here. Oregon's middle earner gets $78,060, putting the state 10 of 51 — about 11.53% ahead of the national figure.
- Against other work in Oregon, this sits in the middle: 168 of 489 occupations with published pay. Solidly ordinary for the state, which is not the same as ordinary nationally.
- The wage here flatters the reality. From $78,060 the take-home is $57,465. But Oregon costs more than the national average, so that money behaves more like $54,875 would elsewhere. Worth knowing before comparing offers across states. The average is higher, $91,510, because the best-paid pull it up.
- For property, real estate, and community association managers, Oregon sits in the upper band nationally: a median of $78,060, ranking 10 of 51 and running about 11.53% above the national midpoint. Nominal advantage of this size is usually, though not always, large enough to survive the state's own tax and price levels.
- Property, real estate, and community association managers ranks 168 of 489 occupations in Oregon by median pay, in the middle bands. Within-state and national positions are separate measurements and a job commonly sits in different quartiles on each.
- Retained pay after federal, FICA and Oregon income tax is $57,465 for property, real estate, and community association managers, from $78,060. The state's price level exceeds the national average, so the price-adjusted equivalent is $54,875. ⚠️ This is purchasing power and not a wage; cross-state offer comparisons that stop at the nominal figure systematically overvalue high-cost states. The mean of $91,510 sits above the median, the right skew typical of wage data.

Sources and assumptions
- A median is the middle, not an offer. Half of property, real estate, and community association managers in Oregon earn under $78,060 and half over. The published range runs $59,220 at the tenth percentile to $139,690 at the ninetieth. Experience and employer move an individual a long way inside that.
- In Oregon the take-home figure of $57,465, from $78,060, 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 168 of 489 occupations here.
- One number stands for prices across all of Oregon, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $54,875, the adjusted value of that $78,060 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 168 of 489 in the state.
- Figures are distribution medians for property, real estate, and community association managers in Oregon, not entry or offer rates. The published band runs $59,220 to $139,690; within-state dispersion of that width routinely exceeds the dispersion between states, so tenure, employer and metropolitan area predict an individual's pay better than geography does.
- Take-home for Oregon is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $57,465 from $78,060. 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 168 of 489 locally.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Oregon, so $54,875 — the adjusted value of that $78,060 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 168 of 489 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
Half earn more than this and half earn less. The average sits at $91,510 because a long tail of high pay lifts it, so the two answer different questions.
Why is the pay range for this job so wide?
One title, many jobs. The lowest tenth take $59,220, the highest tenth $139,690, and what separates them is experience, employer and what exactly the role does.
Does a bigger number here mean I am better off?
A larger wage in a dearer place is not automatically more. Adjusted for local prices, this pay behaves like $54,875 of national purchasing power.
Where does the difference between the wage and my paycheck go?
Four deductions, stacked. The federal layer and the two payroll taxes apply wherever you work; Oregon then takes its own share, leaving $57,465.
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 Oregon is $91,510. 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 ($59,220) and the ninetieth ($139,690) 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.
How does the state price level affect real compensation?
Oregon's regional price parity sits above the national average, so nominal wages overstate purchasing power. Deflating take-home by the state price level gives $54,875 in national-average terms. ⚠️ RPPs are an all-items index; housing parities vary far more widely than the headline figure.
What accounts for the gap between gross wage and take-home here?
Take-home of $57,465 reflects federal income tax, OASDI, Medicare and Oregon 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.
