That is 58.4 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 43.1 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.

The middle half of them earn between $17.89 and $26.74 an hour. BLS counts 840 of them working in the area, 148.7 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 98.4), so the local bench is deeper than average.
A quick sensitivity check: moving the lead trade (carpenters) from the median to the 75th percentile wage adds about $40 to the midpoint estimate; the 25th percentile takes off about $10. That is a swing of roughly 1.6% to 6.9% of the total, which is useful for judging whether a bid reflects wages or something else, such as scope or margin.
