What this pays, and what it is worth
- Oregon sits in the middle of the pack for statisticians. The median is $93,620, ranking 28 of 45 states with figures. Close enough to the national middle that where you live matters more than the headline suggests.
- Within Oregon this is well-paid work. Of 489 occupations with published figures in the state, statisticians ranks 116 — in the top quarter of everything people do there.
- Oregon is an expensive state, and the adjusted figure shows it. From $93,620 the take-home is $67,050; in national-average money that behaves like $64,027. The average comes to $93,720, above the middle, thanks to the top of the range.
- Oregon occupies the middle band for statisticians: a median of $93,620, ranking 28 of 45. Where nominal pay is close to the national figure, the tax and price adjustments below carry proportionally more weight in determining the real outcome.
- Ranked against every occupation Oregon publishes a median for, statisticians sits 116 of 489 — 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.
- Take-home for statisticians in Oregon, on $93,620, is $67,050; deflated by the state's price level, $64,027. ⚠️ The deflator is statewide, so it understates the erosion in the state's metropolitan areas and overstates it outside them. At $93,720 the mean overshoots the median — the usual right-skewed shape.

Sources and assumptions
- Half the people doing this work in Oregon earn less than $93,620. The published range is $54,580 up to $131,230, so an individual figure can sit a long way from the middle in either direction.
- In Oregon the take-home figure of $67,050, from $93,620, 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 116 of 489 occupations here.
- The wage data and the price data come from different years. That is how each is published. The price adjustment behind $64,027 uses one figure for the whole of Oregon. A city and a rural county there can differ by more than two states do. Out of 489 occupations the state publishes, this one sits at 116.
- Reported values are medians; for statisticians in Oregon the tenth-to-ninetieth percentile band is $54,580 to $131,230. Neither the median nor the band is an offer rate, and neither accounts for hours, shift differentials or overtime.
- Take-home for Oregon is computed for a single filer taking the standard deduction with no dependants and no pre-tax contributions, giving $67,050 from $93,620. 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 116 of 489 locally.
- Wage and price series carry different reference periods, each published on its own schedule. The real-terms figure of $64,027, worked from $93,620, deflates by a statewide parity that conceals substantial intra-state variation, concentrated in housing — so it supports comparison between states rather than the pricing of a move to a particular Oregon address, on work sitting at 116 of 489 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 $54,580 and the top tenth $131,230 — experience, employer and specialism separate them, and a single figure hides all three.
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 $64,027 of national purchasing power.
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 Oregon adds its own income tax on top — which is why $67,050 of this wage survives to your account.
Why is this job missing from some states?
Because the survey suppresses a figure when too few employers report it. This occupation has published pay in 45 states — the rest are withheld to protect confidentiality, which is not the same as nobody doing the work there.
What drives the percentile dispersion in this occupation?
Dispersion between the tenth percentile ($54,580) and the ninetieth ($131,230) 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 $64,027 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 $67,050 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.
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 45 of the fifty-one jurisdictions. Suppression reflects sample size and confidentiality rules, and cannot be read as an absence of employment.
