id=\"Median_Salary_vs_Average_Salary_How_Much_are_Office_Workers_Really_Paid\"><b>Median Salary vs. Average Salary: How Much are Office Workers Really Paid?<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given the renewed relevancy of the office as a working environment, we believe it is a prudent time to examine how much the average American office worker earns, by age.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Median and average salary figures are both commonly used when exploring fair compensation in the workplace. Average salary data is determined by adding together all salaries earned by a particular group and dividing this figure by the number of people in the group, whilst median salary data is derived by arranging salaries from low to high and selecting the midpoint. A lot of people refer to these terms interchangeably, however, most prefer to compare salaries against the median wage &#8211; as it isn&#8217;t as impacted by the dramatic ends of the spectrum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s important to note that averages vary dramatically depending on geographic location, with professionals in a high-cost city like San Francisco generally having a higher pay range than those in South Dakota. Differences in median salaries seen between cities often comes down to levels of local job demand, State tax rates, and overall monthly expenses including cost of living. The highest salaries are typically found in locations with a high-concentration of people with advanced degrees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We&#8217;ve broken down our investigation between the most popular office jobs and the best paid office jobs, allowing you to weigh up your role and experience against US averages. Additionally, by reading on, you may find yourself inspired to chase some of the higher salaries for your age and experience!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Why_is_Age_an_Important_Consideration_When_Examining_Salary\"><b>Why is Age an Important Consideration When Examining Salary?<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We feel the age qualifier is an important distinction to take into account, as a worker\u2019s age usually correlates to their experience and how much they can earn. Jobseekers and those already in roles should be aware of the kinds of salaries their age and experience commands \u2013 to make better informed decisions about whether to accept an offer, push for a raise, or quietly celebrate their higher than market-rate remuneration. Knowing how your salary compares to the average essentially allows you to determine whether you&#8217;re being paid a good salary for your education level, age, and job title.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span
