How these numbers are calculated

Every figure comes from open job postings on MANY Hired that state pay in US dollars, imported from employers' own career pages and refreshed daily. For each posting we take the midpoint of its pay range, then report percentiles across postings. Postings without pay are left out; many US states (including California, Colorado, New York and Washington) require employers to list a range. These are advertised pay ranges, not reported earnings, and usually exclude bonus and equity. Updated November 10, 2026.
