BLS metro-level wage data places Electrical and Electronics Repairers, Powerhouse, Substation, and Relay pay in Kansas City, MO-KS at a median of $108,900 per year ($52.36/hr/hour), drawn from the OEWS May 2025 release for this Metropolitan Statistical Area. Compared to the national median of $103,020, Kansas City pays +6% above, signaling either concentrated employer demand, a cost-of-living premium, or both. Approximately 120 electrical and electronics repairers, powerhouse, substation, and relays are employed across the Kansas City MSA in SOC 49-2095.

The Kansas City pay distribution spans from $48,530 at the 10th percentile to $124,480 at the 90th — a 2.6× spread that reflects experience tenure, specialization, employer size, and the difference between public-sector, nonprofit, and private-sector compensation inside the metro. The 25th percentile sits at $91,200 and the 75th at $116,620, so half of Kansas City-based electrical and electronics repairers, powerhouse, substation, and relays earn within that middle band.

Metro figures capture where you actually work, not just where you live — which matters for commuters. BLS draws metro boundaries from the OMB MSA definitions, so Kansas City, MO-KS covers the central city plus outlying counties tied to the metro economically. Remember that OEWS wages reflect base pay only: employer-provided health insurance, retirement matches, stock options, signing bonuses, overtime, and tips are excluded and can add 20-40% to real total compensation. Before using this metro median as a negotiation anchor, triangulate against the same occupation's national profile (linked below), its state-wide MO data, and peer-metro comparisons — a median is a starting point, not a ceiling.
