Do Hialeah residents in office and administrative support work earn more than employers in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, FL area pay?
Hialeah residents working in office and administrative support occupations earn a median of $35,447 (Census ACS 5-year 2023, tables S2401 and B24011), against $46,295 as the median of the 48 wages BLS publishes for that same occupation group in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, FL area (BLS OEWS, May 2025), a difference of 23%, with the employers figure the higher of the two.
Both sides of that figure describe the whole office and administrative support group, not this one role. In the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach, FL area the group covers 48 occupations BLS publishes a wage for, from switchboard operators, including answering service at $35,080 to executive secretaries and executive administrative assistants at $73,180 (BLS OEWS, May 2025), with new accounts clerks at $47,210 inside it.
That comparison is between two different measures, not a pay gap. The two weight the same occupation group differently: the Census figure is the midpoint across the people who actually hold those jobs, so a group carrying a few very well paid occupations is pulled toward them, while the BLS figure is the midpoint across the 48 published occupation wages, which counts each of those occupations once whatever its headcount. Census also counts where people live and BLS counts where the jobs are, and the two cover different populations, Census the civilian employed population 16 and over, BLS wage-and-salary jobs only. Read the number against other cities, where the same definitional difference applies on both sides, rather than as a shortfall.
Published wages across this group in the metro run above what Hialeah residents in it earn, which usually means employers here draw this talent from beyond the city line rather than from inside it.
