- OEWS surveys wage and salary workers. The self-employed and business owners are outside it.
- Take-home assumes one 2026 filer, filing single, taking the standard deduction, with no dependents, pre-tax retirement contributions or local income tax.
- Regional price parities compare price levels between places in one year. They are not inflation, and they do not adjust for what a household actually buys.

Reading the numbers
What stands out for neurologists in Texas
BLS does not publish exact figures above $239,200 a year ($115.00 an hour). At least one percentile in Texas reaches that cap, so the top of the range is higher than the table can show.
Texas does not tax wages, so the take-home figure above loses only federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare.
One median paycheck here is 4.6 times the median household income in Texas ($78,476), a figure that counts every earner in the home.
The gap between the ends is wide: the 90th percentile ($449,840) is 4.5 times the 10th ($99,490). The survey does not say who sits where in that range. It records no experience, shift or employer.
