Midland labor market for vinyl siding
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 Midland is 0.94 times the national level.
For carpenters (47-2031, weighted 60%) the local median is $29.24 an hour, which is in line with the national $29.12. The middle half of them earn between $24.60 and $34.63 an hour. BLS counts 170 of them working in the area, 13.9 for every 10,000 jobs (US: 43.1), so the local bench is thinner than average.
Construction laborers (47-2061), 30% of the weighting: a median of $18.99 an hour, 16% below the US median of $22.66. The middle half of them earn between $17.56 and $22.28 an hour. About 1,970 work in the metro. That is 161.2 per 10,000 jobs, compared with 70.5 nationally, which suggests plenty of local crews to bid.
Sheet metal workers (47-2211) carry 10% of the labor weighting. BLS does not publish this trade for the Midland metro, so we used the Texas statewide median: $26.08 an hour against $29.71 for the US. The middle half of them earn between $21.61 and $30.51 an hour.
Quotes come from real crews, not medians. If the carpenters on your job are paid at the 75th percentile ($34.63 an hour) instead of the median, the labor line grows by about $930. At the 25th percentile ($24.60) it shrinks by about $800. The total moves by 5.9% or 5.1%, so wages alone rarely explain a quote that is far outside our range.
For context on the local economy, BLS counts 122,180 jobs in the Midland area. That makes it the 177th largest of the 300 metros we cover, with 0.08% of US employment.
| Trade | Weight | 25th pct | Median | 75th pct | US median | Ratio | Level used |
