What does Top % mean here?

Earning the median ($103,470) means earning more than about half of Mechanical Engineers in Oregon — the Top 50%. Earning more than the 75th percentile ($130,230) means the Top 25%. Earning more than the 90th percentile ($162,550) means the Top 10%.

How the figures are read: the 10th percentile is the pay below which about 1 in 10 workers in this occupation and state fell; the 25th is about 1 in 4; the median (50th) splits workers in half; the 75th is about 3 in 4; the 90th is about 9 in 10. BLS does not publish a 95th or 99th percentile in this table, so any “Top 5%” or “Top 1%” figure is a modeled estimate, not a published BLS figure — the calculator labels modeled ranks as estimates.

State-level only. This page shows state-level pay only. On the calculator, metro dots show the state-level rank for a wage — not a metro-specific Mechanical Engineers rank — and county lists show typical earnings for all jobs, not Mechanical Engineers pay by county. No metro- or county-level Mechanical Engineers percentiles are shown here, because the BLS OEWS state tables used for this site do not break this occupation down to metro or county level.
