What this pays, and what it is worth
- Neither high nor low. Utah is 25 of 51 states for this job, with a middle wage of $64,290. What that is worth is the question the rest of this page answers.
- Middle of the local pack. Of 487 occupations Utah reports figures for, this is number 186.
- Utah is cheaper than average, and that shows up here. From $64,290 the take-home is $50,976; adjusted for what things actually cost, it goes as far as $53,658 would nationally. The average comes to $77,910, above the middle, thanks to the top of the range.
- Utah ranks 25 of 51 for property, real estate, and community association managers at $64,290. The nominal figure is unremarkable; the adjusted figures are where the state's actual position for this occupation is determined.
- In Utah's occupational distribution, property, real estate, and community association managers sits at 186 of 487 — 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 property, real estate, and community association managers in Utah, on $64,290, is $50,976 — equivalent to $53,658 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 $77,910 the mean overshoots the median — the usual right-skewed shape.

Sources and assumptions
- Half the people doing this work in Utah earn less than $64,290. The published range is $45,610 up to $126,730, so an individual figure can sit a long way from the middle in either direction.
- That $50,976 take-home in Utah comes from $64,290. 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 186 of 487.
- One number stands for prices across all of Utah, which is a simplification — big cities cost far more than small towns. Read $53,658, the adjusted value of that $64,290 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 186 of 487 in the state.
- Reported values are medians; for property, real estate, and community association managers in Utah the tenth-to-ninetieth percentile band is $45,610 to $126,730. Neither the median nor the band is an offer rate, and neither accounts for hours, shift differentials or overtime.
- Retained pay of $50,976, from $64,290, assumes a single Utah 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 186 of 487 locally, and the state ranks 25 of 51 for it.
- Price deflation uses one statewide parity for Utah, so $53,658 — the adjusted value of that $64,290 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 186 of 487 locally.
Questions people ask
Is this the average pay for the job?
It is the midpoint, not the average. The average here is $77,910, 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 $45,610 at the bottom tenth to $126,730 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 Utah sit below the national level, so take-home here stretches like $53,658 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 Utah adds its own income tax on top — which is why $50,976 of this wage survives to your account.
Can I compare this job across every state?
This occupation is published everywhere — all 51 of them — so comparing states measures real differences rather than gaps in the data.
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 Utah is $77,910. 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 ($45,610) and the ninetieth ($126,730) 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?
Utah'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 $53,658 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 $50,976 reflects federal income tax, OASDI, Medicare and Utah 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.
