What this pays, and what it is worth
- Neither high nor low. Wyoming is 29 of 51 states for this job, with a middle wage of $77,860. What that is worth is the question the rest of this page answers.
- Locally, this pays well. Among 433 occupations Wyoming reports, this job comes in at 108 — comfortably in the upper quarter.
- Cheaper living works in this state's favor. From $77,860 you keep $63,605 after tax, and local prices stretch that to the equivalent of $70,012 at national prices. Averages run higher here, $79,080, since top earners drag the number up.
- Wyoming ranks 29 of 51 for radiologic technologists and technicians at $77,860. The nominal figure is unremarkable; the adjusted figures are where the state's actual position for this occupation is determined.
- Radiologic technologists and technicians ranks 108 of 433 occupations by median in Wyoming, in the top quartile. Within-state position is largely independent of national position, so this holds regardless of how the state compares to others for the same work.
- Retained pay in Wyoming is $63,605 after the full tax stack, from $77,860. Because the state's price level runs below the national average, the price-adjusted equivalent is $70,012 — a real-terms figure describing purchasing power rather than compensation, and not a number that appears on any pay stub. Mean pay of $79,080 exceeds the median, so the upper tail is doing the work.

Sources and assumptions
- Half the people doing this work in Wyoming earn less than $77,860. The published range is $56,750 up to $104,790, so an individual figure can sit a long way from the middle in either direction.
- In Wyoming the take-home figure of $63,605, from $77,860, 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 108 of 433 occupations here.
- Two cautions on $70,012, the adjusted value of that $77,860 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 108 of 433 locally.
- Reported values are medians; for radiologic technologists and technicians in Wyoming the tenth-to-ninetieth percentile band is $56,750 to $104,790. Neither the median nor the band is an offer rate, and neither accounts for hours, shift differentials or overtime.
- Take-home for Wyoming is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $63,605 from $77,860. 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 108 of 433 locally.
- This $70,012 adjusted figure, worked from $77,860, 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 108 of 433 in the state. The occupation ranks 108 of 433 locally.
Questions people ask
How much does pay for this job actually vary?
Less than you might expect. The bottom tenth earn $56,750 and the top tenth $104,790, so most people doing this work in Wyoming sit within a fairly tight band.
What does this pay actually buy where I live?
A smaller wage in a cheaper place is not automatically less. Adjusted for local prices, this is worth $70,012.
Is most of this wage taxed away?
No. $63,605 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?
All 51 jurisdictions report this work, which makes the ranking a like-for-like one.
What is the dispersion of this occupation's wage distribution?
The tenth-to-ninetieth percentile span ($56,750 to $104,790) 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 $70,012 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 $63,605 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.
