Estimated employment: 21,870. This covers jobs in the published area, not residents of one county.

The middle half of annual wages runs from $88,620 to $127,290 in 2025, a span of $38,670. Percentiles describe the wage distribution across jobs. They do not identify experience levels or promise an offer.
