Why Yuma prices look the way they do

We price the labor side from BLS wage data for 3 trades: carpenters at 80%, electricians at 10%, plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters at 10%. Weighted together, Yuma wages are 0.82 times the national level. Labor makes up about 44% of the midpoint estimate (48% at national prices).

Materials are scaled with BEA's regional price parity for goods. Yuma is at 96.2 against 100 for the US, so a materials line of $3,750 nationally becomes $3,600 here (midpoint, 25 linear ft). Permits follow the all-items index of 92.7: $460 to $1,400.

What local crews earn in Yuma

The labor line is built from BLS wage data, one trade at a time. This job draws on 3 trades. We compare each trade's local median with the US median, weight the ratios by how much of the job each trade does, and apply the blend to the national labor cost. For Yuma the blend is 0.82.

Carpenters (47-2031), 80% of the weighting: a median of $23.04 an hour, 21% below the US median of $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $18.42 and $27.42 an hour. About 260 work in the metro. That is 37.7 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.

For electricians (47-2111, weighted 10%) the local median is $28.28 an hour, which is 7% below the national $30.38. The middle half of them earn between $21.70 and $35.90 an hour. BLS counts 340 of them working in the area, 49.4 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 48.7), so the local bench is about average.

Plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters (47-2152), 10% of the weighting: a median of $28.36 an hour, 8% below the US median of $30.67. The middle half of them earn between $21.75 and $31.97 an hour. About 170 work in the metro. That is 24.7 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 30.0 nationally, so expect fewer local crews to bid.

A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (carpenters) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $530 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $560. That is a swing of roughly 6.8% to 6.5% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.

Yuma has 68,880 jobs in total (BLS, May 2025), ranking 262nd by size among the 300 metros on this site.
