BLS metro-level wage data places Farm Equipment Mechanics and Service Technicians pay in Clarksville, TN-KY at a median of $50,380 per year ($24.22/hr/hour), drawn from the OEWS May 2025 release for this Metropolitan Statistical Area. Compared to the national median of $56,550, Clarksville pays 11% below, which typically tracks with a lower local cost of living or smaller specialized-employer cluster.

The Clarksville pay distribution spans from $35,360 at the 10th percentile to $79,960 at the 90th — a 2.3× 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 $39,890 and the 75th at $68,920, so half of Clarksville-based farm equipment mechanics and service technicianss 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 Clarksville, TN-KY 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 TN data, and peer-metro comparisons — a median is a starting point, not a ceiling.
