Civil Engineers in the Naples-Marco Island Metro

BLS metro-level wage data places Civil Engineers pay in Naples-Marco Island, FL at a median of $94,600 per year ($45.48/hr), drawn from the OEWS May 2025 release for this Metropolitan Statistical Area. Compared with the national median of $100,840, the metro estimate is 6% below. OEWS reports the difference but does not identify its cause. Approximately 160 civil engineers are employed across the Naples-Marco Island MSA in SOC 17-2051.

The Naples-Marco Island pay distribution spans from $62,660 at the 10th percentile to $151,040 at the 90th, a 2.4× 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 $79,120 and the 75th at $125,800, so half of Naples-Marco Island-based civil engineers earn within that middle band.

Metro figures use establishment work location, not worker residence. BLS draws metro boundaries from the OMB MSA definitions, so Naples-Marco Island, FL 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 FL estimate, and peer-metro rows provide distinct geographic comparisons. A published median is a benchmark, not a prediction or ceiling for one worker.
