What BLS wages cover: OEWS includes base rates, guaranteed pay, commissions and production incentives. It excludes on-call waiting or availability pay, overtime, shift differentials, nonproduction bonuses and benefits. The on-call exclusion covers time awaiting a call to work, not ordinary wages for hours actually worked. These are straight-time gross wages, not pure base salary or total compensation. Discuss per diem, travel and relocation separately. BLS pay-term definitions.

What the published rows say about Altoona, PA data center hiring

CEO / President, Data Center Platform maps to Chief Executives, SOC 11-1011. For Altoona, PA, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $197,360; the middle half runs from $143,630 to $319,180. This is a broader occupation, not a separate wage estimate for this exact job. BLS does not separate seniority titles that share this row. Define decision authority and the scope of the team or account before setting the offer. The occupation estimate does not separately price your site's responsibilities.

The middle-half spread is $175,550: $53,730 from the 25th percentile to the median and $121,820 from the median to the 75th. The upper interval is wider. Use these points to compare an offer, not to price a junior or senior hire. Percentiles are not experience bands, and this distribution alone does not explain why individual workers earn different amounts.

The local median is $16,630 below the national $213,990 on the same annual basis. Both rows cover SOC 11-1011 in May 2025. This is a wage comparison, not a cost-of-living adjustment or evidence of a separate data center premium.
