Cashiers in the Eagle Pass Metro

BLS metro-level wage data places Cashiers pay in Eagle Pass, TX at a median of $27,950 per year ($13.44/hr), drawn from the OEWS May 2025 release for this Metropolitan Statistical Area. Compared with the national median of $32,880, the metro estimate is 15% below. OEWS reports the difference but does not identify its cause. Approximately 700 cashiers are employed across the Eagle Pass MSA in SOC 41-2011.

The Eagle Pass pay distribution spans from $21,120 at the 10th percentile to $36,220 at the 90th, a 1.7× observed spread. Differences in specialization, employer, sector, location, credentials, schedule, and experience may all contribute, but OEWS does not isolate their effects. The 25th percentile sits at $23,300 and the 75th at $32,330, so half of Eagle Pass-based cashiers earn within that middle band.

Metro figures use establishment work location, not worker residence. BLS draws metro boundaries from the OMB MSA definitions, so Eagle Pass, TX covers the central city plus outlying counties tied to the metro economically. OEWS includes straight-time pay, tips, commissions, incentive pay, and production bonuses. It excludes employer health and retirement benefits, overtime premiums, stock compensation, signing bonuses, and other nonproduction bonuses. The same occupation's national profile, statewide TX estimate, and peer-metro rows provide distinct geographic comparisons. A published median is a benchmark, not a prediction or ceiling for one worker.
