What BLS measures
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics surveys what people employed in the occupation earn, at every level of experience. A posting advertises what a new hire is offered, so the two measure different things.
| BLS occupation | 10th pct | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | 90th pct | Employed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Registered Nurses (29-1141) | $33.14 (source: BLS OEWS, Registered Nurses, opens in a new tab) | $38.62 (source: BLS OEWS, Registered Nurses, opens in a new tab) | $46.90 (source: BLS OEWS, Registered Nurses, opens in a new tab) | $54.02 (source: BLS OEWS, Registered Nurses, opens in a new tab) | $66.09 (source: BLS OEWS, Registered Nurses, opens in a new tab) | 3,379,720 (source: BLS OEWS, Registered Nurses, opens in a new tab) |
The posted median ($52.75) is $5.85 above the BLS median ($46.90 (source: BLS OEWS May 2025, Registered Nurses, opens in a new tab)). Posted ranges run from a new hire's rate to an experienced one's, and their midpoint is counted here.
