General and Operations Managers in the Victoria Metro

BLS metro-level wage data places General and Operations Managers pay in Victoria, TX at a median of $80,280 per year ($38.60/hr), drawn from the OEWS May 2025 release for this Metropolitan Statistical Area. Compared with the national median of $105,770, the metro estimate is 24% below. OEWS reports the difference but does not identify its cause. Approximately 1,170 general and operations managers are employed across the Victoria MSA in SOC 11-1021.

The Victoria pay distribution spans from $41,330 at the 10th percentile to $200,950 at the 90th, a 4.9× 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 $55,830 and the 75th at $132,510, so half of Victoria-based general and operations managers earn within that middle band.

Metro figures use establishment work location, not worker residence. BLS draws metro boundaries from the OMB MSA definitions, so Victoria, 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.
