What we assumed
- Wages are BLS OEWS survey estimates for May 2025, not job postings or offers.
- OEWS surveys wage and salary workers. The self-employed and business owners are outside it.
- BLS publishes only an hourly wage for this occupation, so no annual figure and no take-home is shown. Multiplying by 2,080 hours would invent a year BLS declined to assume.
