What the published rows say about Cedar Rapids, IA data center hiring
CEO / President, Data Center Platform maps to Chief Executives, SOC 11-1011. For Cedar Rapids, IA, the May 2025 OEWS annual median is $182,210; the middle half runs from $99,120 to $278,760. This is a broader occupation, not a separate wage estimate for this exact job. BLS does not separate seniority titles that share this row.

The local median is $31,780 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.
