Pay relative to local wages
The wage ratio divides this occupation's median by the all-occupations median in the same area and pay unit. It is simple arithmetic on two BLS values, not a cost-of-living adjustment or a title-specific premium. Location quotient measures employment concentration, not pay. Ratios are not calculated from top-coded or suppressed medians.
