BLS draws metro boundaries from the OMB MSA definitions, so Ogden, UT 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.

A published median is a benchmark, not a prediction or ceiling for one worker.
