Estimated employment: 122,400. This covers jobs in the published area, not residents of one county.

The middle half of annual wages runs from $40,710 to $60,320 in 2025, a span of $19,610. Percentiles describe the wage distribution across jobs. They do not identify experience levels or promise an offer.
