Sources & methodology. All figures on this page come from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (OEWS), May 2025 estimates (released April 2026), retrieved 2026-10-09. "Median" is the 50th percentile — half of workers earn more, half earn less. "Mean" is the arithmetic average. Annual figures assume full-time, year-round work (2,080 hours). Employment estimates exclude the self-employed. Figures are rounded survey estimates, not job offers — actual pay varies by employer, shift, experience, and certifications.
