Mississippi labor market for kitchen cabinets
Statewide wages come from BLS's state-level estimates, which blend big cities with small towns and rural areas. 3 trades drive the labor line for this job, and the weighted ratio against the national wage level is 0.83 for Mississippi.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 80%) the local median is $23.39 an hour, which is 20% below the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $18.47 and $25.23 an hour. BLS counts 2,950 of them working in the state, 25.4 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 $29.26 an hour, 4% below the US median of $30.38. The middle half of them earn between $22.77 and $30.64 an hour. About 6,610 work in the state. That is 56.8 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 48.7 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.

A crew paid at the 75th percentile for carpenters ($25.23 an hour) would add about $220 to the statewide midpoint; one at the 25th percentile ($18.47) would take off about $590. Use that as a rough guide to how far a bid can sit from our midpoint on wages alone.
