Skilled Wages

Download the data

Every table on this site comes from public-domain federal data. These CSV files are the state-level wage extracts used on the trade pages (BLS OEWS May 2025). Cite BLS as the source; a link back here is appreciated but not required.

County-level Davis-Bacon extracts power the lookup on each prevailing wage page (/data/dba/{ST}.json). Full raw sources are listed on the methodology page.

Columns: state, employment counted by the survey, then the 10th, 25th, 50th (median), 75th and 90th percentile hourly wages, the median annual wage, and the source release. Blank cells are estimates BLS suppressed for quality or confidentiality. Wages are straight-time hourly rates reported by employers and exclude overtime and benefits; annual figures assume 2,080 hours. Metro-level and historical extracts are not offered as downloads yet; if you need them for research or reporting, ask and say what you are working on.
