How we estimate
National medians come from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (May 2025) for the closest matching occupation. We scale them by a metro wage index and never show a typical range below the local minimum wage for non-tipped roles. BLS figures exclude tips. Treat these as estimates, not offers. As jobs post here, we show live offers next to the estimate.
