First-Line Supervisors of Entertainment and Recreation Workers, Except Gambling Services (SOC 39-1014) has a national median of $48,560 per year in the BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics May 2025 release. The published 10th-to-90th-percentile boundaries run from $34,760 to $79,060, and the published mean is $53,550. Those summary statistics describe the estimated distribution; their difference alone does not identify its cause. OEWS estimates 103,190 jobs in covered establishments nationally. WageDex has published rows for 53 state or territory areas and 420 metropolitan or nonmetropolitan wage areas. The published national median moved from $46,900 in the May 2024 OEWS release to $48,560 in May 2025, a rise of $1,660 (+3.5%). This is a change between two BLS survey estimates, not an inflation-adjusted same-worker pay raise.

BLS Employment Projections forecast a +6.3% change in employment from 2024 to 2034, which we classify as faster than average relative to the all-occupations baseline of 3.1%. About 13,400 openings are projected per year from growth, occupational transfers, and labor-force exits. BLS assigns High school diploma or equivalent as typical education needed for entry and less than 5 years as the typical related-work-experience category. BLS does not publish a separate occupation-specific fatality and injury rate for this role in the current release. The safety panel below shows its broad Personal Care and Service Occupations SOC-group context and is not an occupation-level measurement or ranking.

Geographic variation matters as much as the headline median. Washington pays the highest state median at $62,900, which is +30% above the national figure. The highest published metropolitan-area median in this ranking is Kennewick-Richland, WA at $69,820, a small-sample estimate from fewer than 100 workers. The observed difference does not identify its cause. Pair the national median with the state and metropolitan-area rows below while keeping the geography and statistic consistent. OEWS includes tips, commissions, incentive pay, and production bonuses, but not employer benefits, overtime premiums, stock compensation, or nonproduction bonuses.

Small gaps in rank between neighbouring rows may not be meaningful.
