Estimated employment: 9,170. This covers jobs in the published area, not residents of one county.

The middle half of annual wages runs from $35,420 to $64,770 in 2025, a span of $29,350. Percentiles describe the wage distribution across jobs. They do not identify experience levels or promise an offer.
