BLS metro-level wage data places Payroll and Timekeeping Clerks pay in Logan, UT-ID at a median of $53,300 per year ($25.62/hr/hour), drawn from the OEWS May 2025 release for this Metropolitan Statistical Area. Compared to the national median of $58,260, Logan pays 9% below, which typically tracks with a lower local cost of living or smaller specialized-employer cluster. Approximately 40 payroll and timekeeping clerkss are employed across the Logan MSA in SOC 43-3051.

The Logan pay distribution spans from $41,350 at the 10th percentile to $64,410 at the 90th — a 1.6× 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 $45,700 and the 75th at $60,150, so half of Logan-based payroll and timekeeping clerkss 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 Logan, UT-ID 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 UT data, and peer-metro comparisons — a median is a starting point, not a ceiling.
