Local wages behind the labor line
Wages are the part of this estimate that changes most from town to town. 3 trades carry the job here, and each is compared with its US median. The weighted result for Crestview is 0.82 times the national level.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 80%) the local median is $23.53 an hour, which is 19% below the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $20.91 and $28.14 an hour. BLS counts 370 of them working in the area, 29.6 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is thinner than average.
Electricians (47-2111), 10% of the weighting: a median of $27.50 an hour, 9% below the US median of $30.38. The middle half of them earn between $22.81 and $30.88 an hour. About 550 work in the metro. That is 44.0 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 48.7 nationally, so the supply of crews looks typical.
For plumbers, pipefitters and steamfitters (47-2152, weighted 10%) the local median is $25.01 an hour, which is 18% below the national $30.67. The middle half of them earn between $23.27 and $29.93 an hour. BLS counts 370 of them working in the area, 29.6 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 30.0), so the local bench is about average.
Quotes come from real crews, not medians. If the carpenters on your job are paid at the 75th percentile ($28.14 an hour) instead of the median, the labor line grows by about $550. At the 25th percentile ($20.91) it shrinks by about $310. The total moves by 6.8% or 3.9%, so wages alone rarely explain a quote that is far outside our range.
For context on the local economy, BLS counts 125,050 jobs in the Crestview-Fort Walton Beach-Destin area. That makes it the 172nd largest of the 300 metros we cover, with 0.08% of US employment.
